Tom has always been fascinated by volcanoes. So this summer Mum takes him, his sister Anna and his best friend Kevin for a holiday close to a dormant one in France. It's their first holiday away since Tom's dad died two years ago.They explore the area and make friends with a scientist studying a cave system nearby. Everything is peaceful and fun - until one morning the volcano comes to life again. I'm an English ex-pat living in France with my family and a lot of animals, including llamas and carp. I was a bestselling author in Ireland, where we lived for 15 years before we moved to our new home here. I've recently relaunched my writing career, but this time as an indie ebook author and publisher. It's the twenty-first century after all!
