Welcome! I’m the author of Corn Dolls, Steel Witches and Cut Out – the Tom Fletcher trilogy of books. I’m currently working on my next book, Fixer, a new standalone thriller.
I always enjoy hearing from people who’ve read my books or want to discuss writing. My email is patrickpost@hotmail.co.uk, or leave a comment here.

Thank you, Ann, for the kind comment, and glad you enjoyed it! The next book ‘Fixer’ should be out late 2012.
Best wishes from a chilly London.

Dear Patrick,
Initially, i hesitated to pick your first book as i wanted to start with your latest publication, Cut Out! But once i started ‘Corn Dolls’, i couldn’t believe that it could be anyone’s first creation!! Very unique plot and the way you have described the scenario is overwhelmingly impressive! Wonderful work!
Thanks, Kamana – 2007 (when I wrote it) seems like a very long time ago now. . .as it does for a lot of people, I guess. Take care and please stop off at the office if you’re in England.
Hey,
Also i finished your 3rd fiction, ‘Cut Out,’ as Corn Dolls had already put such an impression on me! This one even turned out to be better one! Every time i turned its pages, i felt like i was watching some interesting movie. It’s simply mind-blowing!
Congratulations for all your publications!
Looking forward for your next novel (Ted is a very impressive character indeed!).
Best wishes.
Kamana
You get coffee AND cake for that analysis.
Thank-you! I would love to!
But these comments are straight from my heart!
STEEL WiTCHES:
While going through it, I realized that this publication has been underestimated. The Witches’ stories are bewitching with suspense holding till the end!
However, the story could still be made shorter!
That’s cheered me up.
Hi Patrick,
I picked up ‘Cut Out’ recently thinking it was North American fiction mystery. Although I am not ordinarily a fan of British prose, I started reading because the cover appealed tome
and I was pleasantly surprised. .
I am glad I started off with ‘Cut Out’ , because when I read ‘Corn Dols’ later I was disappointed. too much skipping forth and back.
Then went on to ‘Steel Witches’ and found it intriguing! and things are looking up.
Tom Fletcher is fleshed out nicely and not too much of a stretch for a staunch N-Am. reader.
I hope he will be returning and giving Jack Reacher and Phil Broker amongst others,a run for the money. …..
Looking forward to the next even if it is a stand-alone
Thank you for the kind comment, Harmien. As a big Lee Child/Dennis Lehane/James Lee Burke enhusiast, I wanted the books to have a slightly US feel – especially, for example, the way JLB makes things in the South seem kind of unearthly (at least to me.) The roads paved with flat tin cans and oyster shells and that kind of thing – I was looking for that kind of atmosphere in the UK.
Best wishes from a freezing London.
