Disgraceful (2026)
A Novel
“Sometimes bad decisions are the best ones you can make.”
​​​
49-year-old Grace Miller is the ultimate good girl. Good wife, good mother, good role model. She has to be, she’s been married to a high-profile Evangelical Christian pastor for nearly thirty years.
But when Grace’s marriage implodes very publicly, she realises she’s spent her entire life putting other people’s needs first – and she’s had enough. Determined to shake things up, Grace writes a ‘f*ck-it’ list of fifty bad decisions, to complete before she turns fifty. But just as she starts to reclaim herself, her family throw her some unexpected curve balls that threaten to derail the plan.
With the emotional heart and complex family dynamics of Marian Keys and Monica McInerney, combined with the sharp humour of Kathy Lette and Caitlin Moran, Disgraceful explores ideas of sex and ageing, faith, motherhood and the complexities of family, and tramples the idea that women should grow old gracefully, positing that sometimes bad decisions are the best ones you can make.

Dead Famous (2023)
A Kat Alley Mystery
(As Ruby Fox)
A high-profile journalist, a career headed for rock bottom… and the Hollywood murder mystery that could fix it all.
After she gets a story catastrophically wrong, celebrity columnist, Katherine ‘Kat’ Alley is shipped off to Los Angeles and given one last chance. Her brief? A simple retrospective on Xander Hill—long-dead movie star and the victim of one of Hollywood’s most enduring murder mysteries.
Kat has a better idea—solve the fifty-year-old cold case and resurrect her reputation. But digging up the past unearths the last witness she expects—or wants. A witness who makes her question everything she believes about her job, herself, and the invisible line that separates this life and the next.
The more Kat uncovers, the more she realises that everyone in Hollywood has a secret and nothing is what it seems. Can she solve the mystery of who killed Xander Hill before time runs out?
As thrilling as it is funny, and with more twists than a curly straw, Dead Famous will have you falling in love with your new favourite amateur detective quicker than you can say “And, the Oscar goes to…”
“Whip smart, hilarious and brimming with intrigue. I devoured it in one sitting!” - Emma Grey, USA Today best-selling author of The Last Love Note and Pictures of You.

"A side-splittingly witty rollercoaster ride through every woman's Hollywood daydreams. Kat Alley is who I want to be when I don't grow up!” - Nina D. Campbell, author of Daughters of Eve
