(? - ) Portuguese-born author, in UK from the age of eight, whose Isabel Reis sequence of policiers beginning with The Colours of Death (2021) is set in an Alternate World version of Lisbon where some individuals exhibit Psi Powers, including Telekinesis and Telepathy, and who comprise a threatened Pariah Elite. The protagonist, who is "Gifted", must untangle a case whose Political implications are explosive. Portugal may be a fertile arena for continuing exploration as the series continues. [JC]
