When not teaching creative writing at Bonn University, Williams loves to cook (and bake).

What others are saying about Flowers for the Dead: 'Wow, I loved this book very much. It's dark, intense and quite chilling at times, and it really made for some harrowing reading.' Sarah, NetGalley reviewer 5* 'Bar none, this one of my top favorite thrillers to date. Whoa! Damn... You've gotta read it! 5+ stars.' Olivia, NetGalley reviewer 5* 'I would fully recommend this well written book. Strap yourself in - the subject matter is harrowing but expertly woven into a tale of secrets, mis-truths and ulterior motives.' Mark, NetGalley reviewer 5* 'One of the best novels I read for 2019. The rough storyline hit a nerve and didn't stop until the end. I loved the strong and determined main character.' Reva, Netgalley reviewer 'A great psychological thriller which will keep you reading until the last page.' Sharon, Netgalley reviewer 'I thought I knew the culprit and then thought it was first one character and then another. Isn't this what makes a great mystery?'
