I have always loved scary stories, especially ones that shocked me, left me terrified, looking under my bed or in the wardrobe before going to sleep.

There was just a fantastic buzz whenever I watched or read something that took my breathe away.

I remember going to my nan’s house in Ireland as a youngster with my mother and sister, on the West Coast, staying in a cottage, surrounded by miles of fields and my family sitting around the table in the kitchen at night telling ghost stories. Going out and exploring derelict farmhouses in the middle of nowhere. I remember clearly the field at the end of the road was supposed to be haunted by headless nuns.

My cousins often remind me of the great times we had, frightening each other and running for our lives whenever we’d see something that didn’t look right.

This is why I love nothing more than to tell a story.

I started writing two years ago, penning The House On Rectory Lane.I got the idea from something that has often seemed scary to me. I know that a terrifying story has to be something that you’re frightened of doing, something that makes the hairs stand on the back of your neck, something that fills you with dread, yet also with excitement.To me, the thought of going to a house in the middle of nowhere, upping and leaving a busy town and moving to the country is something that scares lots of people and me: the seclusion, the quiet, the darkness.

That’s what inspired me to write my first novel. My second thriller is called Turn The Other Way.I have multiple stories running, past and present. A family who want answers from the surgeon responsible for their daughter’s death. A young woman looking for her parents after they go missing from a party. A couple driving home and hearing screams for help from the back of the van in front of them. A serial killer on the loose in North London, dragging victims off the street.

I’m so grateful when people not only read my thrillers but also take the time to get in touch and leave a review. To me, that is the greatest feeling, hearing from people that have enjoyed my work. I know then that I’m doing something right.

I’m currently working on my new thriller, Apartment Six, which Will be released 29th of January.

I’m 45, married and have two beautiful children. Currently, I’m a full-time plumber but would love nothing more than to make a living from my writing.

I hope I write stories and people continue to enjoy them for years to come. That would be completely amazing and a dream come true.

Apartment 6 By Stuart James
Review by Heidi Lynn's Book Reviews

First, I want to thank Stuart James and BOTBSpublicity for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review.

Stuart James sure knows how to captivate his audience right off the bat in Apartment 6!! Little Megan just captured my heart of how brave she was being int the prologue. My heart totally ached for what she had to witness as a young child and how that progressed later in life. 

I must warn the readers that this book deals with some pretty intense topics that may trigger some. This book deals with domestic violence, rape, murder, and being a constant victim of abuse.

One of the things I really liked that Stuart did in this book was he went back to Megan’s childhood and we learned more about her and the abusive cycle she witnessed from her father. No child or adult should ever be put through what she went through.

There was a very interesting twist that shocked me at the middle of the book.

I did get annoyed with Megan towards the end of the book as she would not let this one topic go.
