A chance meeting as a teenager with a woman whose fiancé flew in the First World War triggered Suzanne’s fascination with the adventure and aviation of this period. But after a science degree and a career as a development chemist, there seemed little opportunity to pursue such interests. Until a move to the Scottish Highlands provided the perfect career change to do so. Working as a librarian, Suzanne was able to indulge her passion for literature, creative writing, historical fiction and anything aviation. Several trips to Belgium and Northern France resulted in Suzanne’s first book, Secrets in the Sky, which was one of nine books selected for Hachette UK’s Future Bookshelf Cohort for 2021. The book is the first in a fictional series of female-led wartime adventure stories.
The next series of three books is the WWII Aviatrix Adventure series combining adventure, espionage and danger galore. All Suzanne’s books mix emotion and adventure with historical authenticity.
A keen runner, Suzanne divides her time between family, her feline friends, writing, reading, overseeing a local writing group, library work and, of course, watching the sky. You can contact Suzanne via Facebook on Suzanne's author page: Suzanne Parsons, or X @Suzanne7Parsons

At the beginning of July 1918, James McCudden, who was the third of six children to an Irish father, was already highly decorated having recently received the Victoria Cross. On the 9th July 1918, and with an...
