Biography

The author has spent 30 years working as an exploration geologist managing remote sites and doing due diligence of projects in more than thirty countries. During this time, she has been collecting tall tales and real-life experiences which inspired her to write the Sam Harris Series chronicling the adventures of a female geologist as a pioneer in an almost exclusively male world. PJ has worked in various countries in South America and Africa in remote, strange and often dangerous places and loved every minute of it despite encountering her fair share of misogyny and other perils. She is now writing these fact-based adventure books from the relative safety of London but still travels all over the world collecting data for her writing.
The Sam Harris Adventure Series is perfect for lovers of classic adventure,and has a unique viewpoint provided by Sam, a female interloper in a male world, as she struggles with alien cultures and failed relationships. The author is working on the seventh and last book of the series, Concrete Jungle,which will be published in Q4 of 2019.
The author is also researching two other new books, one of which, Rebel Green, is based on her childhood in Ireland
