A Company Director for twenty years, she has written obsessively for over a decade, predominantly in the crime genre. She has completed six full length novels and numerous short stories.
After completing a creative writing course, she decided to take her writing to the next level and sought representation. She is a columnist for Words with Jam literary magazine, a regular theatre goer and avid reader across genres.

OH MY! This book had it all. There is history, there is paranormal, there is a bit of romance, there is betrayal, there is loyalty, there is ... Well, I think that you get the idea here.
This is the story of Sarah going back home to bury her father. Once she is home, lots and lots of stuff happens. I don't want to say much because I certainly do not want to give any of the story away. This is a thriller, for sure. You won't know who is good and who is not so good until it is all revealed by Ms Hamer's very skilled hand at weaving this tale.
I loved this book and will be reading more from Gillian E. Hamer!… (meer)

Boring, Boring, Boring
Predictable, ridiculous. Damsel in distress routine.
Don't waste your time. Author should be doing something other than writing. Could not finish.

Descendants of the Druids involved in that war hold secrets that one person wants to know…badly. So badly, in fact, that serial killings become the urgent focus of three detectives. A killer is at large who will stop at nothing to unearth these very closely guarded secrets.
It was a surprise to me to discover that this book is actually the third in a series, so I was particularly impressed how well it stood alone. The characters and plot are well developed (perhaps just a tad muddled towards the end). I also had to suspend disbelief…Druids might have had ‘seers’ in their midst in 60 AD…but in the twenty-first century? I don’t think so.
For all that, it was a gripping book and deserves a five-star rating, but sadly, the editing wasn’t up to scratch. Grammatical errors, some odd phrases verging on Malapropisms and a bunch of punctuation faux pas (too much reliance on software editing) means I have to knock a star off.
Notwithstanding, I like this author and will certainly hunt out more of her books.… (meer)
