Snippets from my first novel Dark Summer Nights It’s a nice summer’s day in June, the sun shining, birds whistling, the heat burning down; some would think this would last forever for Summer, a fifteen year old Indian girl born and bred in Balham. She is a sibling to thirteen year old Nikesh and twenty year old Sumi. Summer lives a very carefree life but occasionally rebels against her strict parents when she deems right. She wears her silky brown hair in a long plait with big brown eyes that mesmerises anyone in her presence.

The bell rings and the lessons after her kiss from Henry are a blur. For the whole afternoon they constantly stare at each other occasionally winking at each other. Fortunately for them the teacher doesn’t catch them. The last bell rings and they all walk out of the classroom. They stroll down the corridor looking at their phones bumping into each other. Tommy grabs Henry aside as Sumi pulls up near the school gates. “Hey lady”...
