Conquerabia: The Struggle For Identity August 2024 marks the release of Conquerabia: The Struggle for Identity, a riveting novel that chronicles the dramatic and formative history of Trinidad. From its discovery by Christopher Columbus in 1498 as The Spanish Antilles, to its stunning cession from Spain to Britain’s Ralph Abercromby for King George III. This fictionalised account illuminates the pivotal events that shaped the island’s journey. Authored with meticulous attention to historical detail, Conquerabia offers a unique narrative often overshadowed by tales of America, Jamaica, and Haiti. This compelling story delves into the installation of Trinidad’s first lawless governor, Thomas Picton. The novel also explores the profound implications of the threat of the abolition of slavery on the island’s social and cultural landscape. In Conquerabia: The Struggle for Identity, readers will embark on an unforgettable journey through Trinidad’s past, experiencing the resilience and indomitable spirit of its people. This book is not just an historical recount but a tribute to the rich heritage and evolution of Trinidad into the vibrant and affluent island it is today.

Join me on the 31st October for my author talk at North Kensington Library where I'll be discussing my debut novel "Conquerabia: The Struggle For Identiy".

When my two proof copies arrived, I knew I had to take one over to my 90 year old mother, who was delighted with her copy and even asked me to sign it. I am deeply flattered.
