Anne Bronte, the youngest and most enigmatic of the Bronte sisters, remains a best-selling author nearly two centuries after her death. The brilliance of her two novels - Agnes Grey and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall - and her poetry belies the quiet, yet courageous girl who often lived in the shadows of her more celebrated sisters. Yet her writing was the most revolutionary of all the Brontes, pushing the boundaries of what was acceptable. This revealing new biography opens Anne's most private life to a new audience and shows the true nature of her relationships with her siblings, in particular with her sister Charlotte.

This thriller chiller, as if Raymond Chandler had written a horror novel, is the story of an ordinary man thrown against his will into an extraordinary situation. People can take murderous secrets to the grave but when they cry out for justice they speak to John Halle: a man who can see and hear the truth that remains hidden to others. Halle finds himself the pawn in a murderous game being played from both sides of the grave until he finds his own life in the deadliest danger. How far would you go for the one you love? How far would you go for the one that you love even when they were dead? John Halle goes further. 'The Girl On The Bus' is the debut novel of Nick Holland, the Yorkshire writer who has previously written plays and award winning poetry. You can read the first 15 pages of my novel on the preview but please be aware that as the dark and complex novel progresses the bodies mount up and the tension increases. Dare you read 'The Girl On The Bus'?
