The Red Hat Stories

My favourite read of the year.

London, a city of millions where even the solitary are never alone.

The bustling spaces host fleeting interactions between strangers, each with their own troubles. A homeless man wrestles with his demons, a woman braves the outside after illness, a witness is troubled by a predatory encounter, a businessman is forced to do community service, a woman grieves the love of her life; all are affected by the actions of a stranger in a red hat. Who is she, and what is her story?

The Red Hat Stories explore the connection between strangers, the assumptions we make, and how overlooked encounters have unforeseen effects. Out now in paperback and ebook
