Hello and Welcome!

I write psychological thrillers about relationships, family drama, secrets and lies – from dark and disturbing tales of obsession and jealousy, to twisty thrillers with a dash of romance – my passion is creating characters that get under your skin and stories that keep you gripped.

My books are inspired by my studies in psychology, and I have always been fascinated by the strength, peculiarities and extremes of human nature. As well as working as a psychologist, I volunteered for mental health charity Mind before starting my journey as an author. It has been an incredibly exciting journey and I am so grateful for the support of my readers.

When I am not writing, I will usually be found in my garden or getting out and enjoying the outdoors – immersing myself in nature and giving my mind a chance to work on my next story!

I’d love to hear from you! Please get in touch with any comments, questions, or anything else by emailing louise@lkchapman.com
