about me

Hi there,
Three years after I started it, I have finished my crime thriller Touch Sensitive. It's a little rough around the edges and I harbour no delusions of reaching 'The Desk'. However, as I am about to give it a final edit I'd appreciate any constructive criticism of my work and will reciprocate with reads as time allows, although I'll only shelve work that I genuinely feels is deserving of it.

Touch Sensitive

Sarah Kidner

For Oliver Fazackerley, killing is an art form.
Can computer scientist Dee Patel and her DCI boyfriend catch him before he kills again?


Serial killer, Oliver Fazackerley feels your pain literally.
Oliver has mirror-touch synaesthesia so when he sees others touch, he feels it too….
Fate lands him a job providing technical support to The Samaritans.
After reading some of the messages on The Samaritans’ email server, Oliver is drawn into the lives of the people who sent them.
He wreaks vengeance on their tormentors; a cyber-bully, wife-beater and a homophobic neighbour.
Ursula Barrow is a journalist for the Evening Standard. She went to school with Oliver and has been secretly in love with him ever since he saved her from a playground bully on their first day at school. She is hot on the heels of the Crystal Killer unaware of his true identity.
Also hot on the killer’s trail are DCI Ben Sanderson from the Met’s Major Incident Team and his latest protégé DC Walsh. He is also aided by his feisty girlfriend Divya Patel, a forensic computer scientist.
Can they discover what links their seemingly unrelated victims before Oliver kills for a fourth time, or will his empathy for his victims be his ultimate downfall?
This is a serial killer with heart, be careful he doesn’t steal yours…

Hi Cas, Have read the first couple of chapters of Bloodstones. I love the tension you build between the two main characters and there's some great writing here. I'm keen to see how the characters develop ad am shelving this. Kipper view book

An intriguing pitch, which starts with a question – as all good books do. I can imagine a young boy asking their parents precisely the question as to where the dead birds go. First line gripped me. Wherever I was it smelled of pee. This is pitch-perfect for your intended audience. You build the su... view book

You'v set this up with some excellent realistic characters and some good tension between them. I instantly identified with Saira - how often parents uproot their kids without thinking about the consequences this has on them. I remember when mine moved out of my childhood home. I was 14 years old and... view book

I confess, when I read others comments on this and the pitch I was unconvinced. What a fool! This is a classic in the making. Looking forward to Jaye becoming a publisher and snapping it up, or HC. If they don't then it's genuinely their loss. Backed with pleasure. view book

Dear Alan, This is amazing. There is some beautifully crafted writing here. I love the way that in a single chapter you set the scene so well. The expectations of her family, the Savannah Oak that's so symbolic of the family tradition, the conflict between Maxine and Hayley. Little phrases like th... view book
