For the Love of a Mother

Sophia Wood writes psychological crime fiction that explores the darker side of human behaviour, obsession, family relationships and the secrets people will go to extraordinary lengths to protect. With a particular interest in criminal psychology, forensic investigation and the question of what drives an apparently ordinary person to commit extraordinary acts, Sophia enjoys creating stories where the truth is rarely as simple as it first appears. For the Love of a Mother is a dark psychological crime thriller examining the lasting effects of childhood, control and distorted love, while following the detectives tasked with piecing together the forensic trail left behind by a killer determined to be understood. When she isn’t writing, Sophia continues to develop ideas for stories centred around complex characters, hidden motives and investigations where every piece of evidence matters.
