Thanks for visiting my site! I’m Ruth Irons, author, musician, teacher, mother. I live in Kingston with my husband, and our two gorgeous daughters. I always wrote stories as a child, but only began writing in earnest in my late thirties. As well as working on a children’s book, I started writing other things … short stories, flash fiction, picture book texts, interesting sentences … and became hooked. This eventually led me to psycholgical thrillers. My debut novel, ‘The Perfect Guest’ is out now, published by Bonnier Books.

I hope you enjoy reading my ramblings and revelations about being bitten by the writing bug, and all the things that came next!
