Set early in S9, after 9.1, this is a short story in 4 chapters – a one-shot which got away from me. Harry and Ruth, with no-one else, and no plot to speak of. While not altogether serious, nor could...

A(nother) post S.10 AU fic ... in 6 chapters, beginning in 2016. The inspiration for this fic came from a review (by NatesDate) for an old fic, in which she commented on the improbability both of Rut...

This story takes place in an AU universe between 27th Dec 2014, and 1st January 2015. Ruth has been gone since Harry gave away Albany to save her, and now she is back. Some angst, but chiefly a lot o...

I thought its about time I revisited pre-Cotterdam, and created an alternative to the canon option. This is a fic of 13 chapters, with a slightly different slant on the events of 5.5 and onwards. I h...

This story opens around 6 weeks after Ruths death, so this is a post-Ruths death story, making this AU. Its a serious story, but it has its lighter moments. Characters are a few from S10, plus a numb...

This is an 8 chapter sequel to "Miles Apart". Set from early in 5.04, and ending mid to late 5.05, this story weaves around the canon, occasionally veering off into its own universe. Told chiefly fro...

This story, of 2 chapters and an epilogue, is set during the last 2 weeks of December 2010. Chapter 2 will be posted in around 7 days, with the epilogue around 24 hours following that. As in some oth...

So I had to put aside the one shot I had already written to post at this time, as this other story kind of barged its way in. I have included one of my own favourite OCs from some other fic I wrote (...

This multi-chapter fic begins between Series 4 and 5, and continues from there. In this story, Adam was not shot by Angela Wells, and so is fit and well. It begins with a non-canon story line, where ...

It is New Years Eve, and for once, Ruth and Harry appear to be on the same page, but there is "always something". A two-shot piece for New Year. ...

Another story featuring Jane Townsend, set around 3 months after "Surprise Encounter". Part follow-up, part companion piece, this is a Harry & Ruth story, with lashings of Jane. 5 chapters. ...

This is an AU story, set early in S9, providing some alternative outcomes. It is part plotty nonsense, and part Harry & Ruth. Ros and Lucas also feature, as does Tariq. Now 10 chapters. ...

Its only months after the death of Ros Myers and Andrew Lawrence, and Harry finds himself on enforced leave. ...

Three months after Ruth is stabbed by Sasha Gavrik, Harry has a visitor. Who is it, and why are they there? One shot for Christmas. Fluffy stuff. ...

Harry is away from the Grid - AWOL, gone dark - and no-one knows where he is or why. Lucas has been left in charge of the team, and that cant be a good thing. So, what should Ruth do? A fic of 7 chap...

Around a year ago I wrote my first Spooks/Ruth Galloway (from the novels by Elly Griffiths) crossover fic called "Dont Druids Worship the Full Moon?" This fic, of 7 chapters, is a follow-up, and open...

Who is the woman who has the ability to create such anger in Harry? Ruth is sure it is none of her business. This story in 3 chapters is the outcome of a stray comment on Facebook by a couple of othe...

Harry contemplates the state of things between he and Ruth after the death of Ros, and after his unwise marriage proposal. One shot only ...

Harry begins dreaming, and these are not ordinary dreams. Completely and utterly AU, set sometime in S.9. 3 chapters. ...

This is the first of two (unrelated) fics for Ruths birthday - 29th April. Set 18 months after Ruths death, an old friend comes to Harrys rescue. ...

This is my offering for Ruths birthday - April 29th. A 2-shot set some time in S8, not long after Ruth returns. Mildly amusing rather than humorous, more whimsy than laugh-out-loud. Enjoy! ...

A one shot, set early in S.5 - after the losses of Danny and Colin - before it all went wrong. An alternative lead up to the dinner. ...

My second one-shot in honour of Harrys birthday, this story follows a similar arc to "A Birthday To Remember", and so is a companion piece. Set just after the end of S.10, following canon, but with a...

The first of two one-shots I have written in honour of Harrys birthday on November 1st. The fic explains itself. An AU situation within the canon storyline. Perhaps Spooks would have been better had ...

A story set during Eps 6.1 - 6.2, beginning with the canon story, but veering into AU territory, when someone who is living in Italy gets involved, and changes the course of events. (There are plot h...

Harry decides to not accept Ruths decision to turn down his invitation to have dinner a second time, but he has a battle on his hands, some of which is internal. Yet another one shot which became mor...

An AU alternative look at late S09 through to early S10, using the S09 team. Im just attempting to simplify what became horrifically complicated in canon. This is now a story in 16 chapters. ...

Harry receives some surprising and life-changing news - post Ruths death. Definitely a one shot, mostly from Harrys POV. ...

Yet another one shot has convinced me i should write it down, so here it is. Its gentle, the theme somewhat unoriginal, but I like writing OCs, and the OC walked into the story unexpectedly, so ... I...

Using the team from S9 (minus Lucas) this one shot is a rambling, plotless romp focusing on Harrys underwear, officially for Harrys birthday, while unofficially for no reason at all. Massively OOC an...

Another one shot, and another one set in S10, with a twist to canon, just to once again avert the inevitable disaster which emerged (inevitably) during the final series. I wanted to write something c...

Set some time in S9, this is another AU look at a possible development between Ruth and Harry, had the scriptwriters had a heart. A bit of a plot for good measure. One shot only, (and written in a hu...

Set mid to late S.8, there is a new girl on the Grid, and she appears to be a man-eater. Should Ruth be worried? One-shot (definitely). ...

Another one shot set after the end of S10. (And I have little control over if, when & whether these one shots get written, other than to say that if the story talks to me, and I like it, then I b...

This story takes place on the evening of Ros funeral, and is a not altogether serious look at Ruth (in particular) after The Proposal, and how she and Harry are faring. She gets a not-so-gentle shove...

This 4-chapter story provides an epilogue to the 3 stories I have written featuring Jane Townsend. It begins immediately after 10.6 ends. When this story opens Harry and Ruth have been married for a ...

I always felt that Ruths shooting of Rigaut would have left her traumatised, which it did, but in this story I am examining that time in more detail. I have kept Ros alive after the hotel bombing. 13...

This one shot is set during S5, where Cotterdam doesnt, and never will exist. I like to think of this story as being a story about Jo, and all the other characters involved are just along for the rid...

Set in Series 9, a month after Harrys proposal. Harry is still hurting, and Ruth has made a list... a Harry List. ...

This one shot is a loose follow-on from my last one shot, set a couple of months after "Its August Again." Together Harry and Ruth visit the past, some of it shared, some of it belonging to Harry alo...

Veering from S.10 canon, Ruth has taken extended leave, and Harry travels to Cyprus to look for her. His leave takes a strange turn when he meets someone he hasnt seen in a long time. 5 chapters plus...

This is the third part of the Jane Townsend trilogy, which began with "Surprise Encounter", and then continued with "A Woman Waits For Me." This story opens early in S.10 and strays from canon from t...

Harry is approaching his 60th birthday - another birthday without Ruth - when everything hed believed to be true is proven to be untrue. How does he handle the news, especially when he has been attem...

A one shot, two hander, set in S8, two days after the death of Jo Portman. Angsty, but hopeful. ...

An AU piece of nonsense, set after the ending of S.10. Ruth visits Harry, and becomes a trifle obsessed with ... well, read it and see. Dont expect H & R to be IC, because Im making them do thing...

A one shot set post-10.6. Harry is retiring to the country ... but all is not as it seems. A little deception is required. ...

A one shot for those with birthdays in April. Set some time in S8. ...

This is a surprise one shot. That is, I hadnt planned to write anything for New Year, but this idea emerged, and refused to go away. In a way this fic is just an excuse to create and flesh out anothe...

This is a hidden scene, set some time early in 5.04, before Havensworth, and well before Cotterdam. I have written this story before, but during different times in Spooks, so its not entirely origina...

Set from late in 10.06. What if Dimitri had gone outside the bunker 30 seconds earlier? How would this have affected the outcome of 10.06? ...

This is a post S10 story, in which all the drama of S10 is skipped, only for drama of another kind to emerge from unexpected quarters. Also featuring Erin, Dimitri, Tariq and Alec, who made it out al...

An AU situation featuring the S9 team, but with the focus firmly on HR. Some romance, some team silliness, and a few other bits and pieces which took my fancy. Written quickly to honour the birthdays...

With each of these one shots I write, I believe I am writing my last one. Then, a week or three later another idea coalesces, so here I am, still doing this. This one shot is a Christmas offering, an...

I wanted to write an Easter story, and this is as close as Ill get. It is set Easter 2011 (thus the title ...) and Ruth has chosen to work on the Grid for the whole 4 days. Why not? Its not as though...

This short story is told in 3 chapters. Set late in S.8, I have written this story to stand instead of the drink-they-never-got-to-have. It also might serve to lead into Harrys strange proposal early...

Set early in S.9. This story takes place almost all off-Grid (my favourite place) Something is going down in Warwickshire, and there is a mystery to be solved. Someone - presumed dead - has gone miss...

Set early in S.10. this one shot is written in response to a prompt from Sigma Creations. Ruth and Harry ...

Yet another one shot, and again from later in the Spooks story, rather than earlier. Ruth is seriously miffed with Harry, but she doesnt have the full story, and nor does she appear to care about the...

A conversation on the Grid about mens underwear sends the ball rolling in an inevitable direction ... downhill. Some nonsense which wouldnt leave me alone. AU, and just for fun, and because I can. De...

This is another one shot, set after the end of S10, and so providing an alternate, and more satisfying ending to the story. Like a flower the story unfolds, so I cant say any more without revealling ...

A one shot set some months after the end of S10. I find it impossible to categorise this story, or to choose the chief characters, so Ill not do that. All is revealled by reading, so best you do that...

Set early in S9, a look at most members of the Grid. Ruth has not turned up at work, so where can she be? Part angst, part romance, with itsy bits of humour. One shot only. ...

This is another one shot, set several months after Ruths return from Cyprus. Chiefly dialogue-driven, and featuring Harry and Ruth, and a brief appearance by Ros Myers - because Ros can say things wh...

This is definitely one-shot, in which an underlying plot carries Harry along with it to places he never expected hed have to go. Told for Harrys POV, this is set early in S.10, with no sign or mentio...

The date this story occurs is the evening of October 31, 2009. Thus, its a Harrys birthday fic, but that is just an excuse for a one shot set at this time of year, although my main motivation for wri...

Another weekend one shot. This is set in the space between the end of S8 and the beginning of S9. ...

This weekends one shot is more serious than usual. All is explained as you read it. ...

Set after Harry had asked Ruth to marry him, he seeks her out to help him through a personal crisis. 6 chapters. ...

This is this weekends one shot, set some time mid S9. AU setting and events, with overtones of Havensworth. ...

Set 2 years after Ruth has left London, she is living in a small town in Germany, and she receives an encrypted note. I am telling this story in longer chapters, and so it should be wrapped up in 5 c...

Ruth knows something that none of her colleagues know - other than Harry, of course. Does she tell them, or does she keep this information to herself? Just a nonsense one shot, for entertainment only...

Another weekend one shot, folks. (And theres more to follow.) This one is set in that vast AU territory post-S10. ...

This fic began with the idea of putting Ruth and Connie together on the Grid - as work colleagues - and the likely repercussions of such a pairing. What happened wasnt what Id expected at all, and wh...

Another post-S.10 fic, where all is not as it seems. Massively AU. 6 chapters. (This story has been lying around for a while, and I thought I may as well dust it off.) ...

This is a one shot (definitely!) set in S9, 6 weeks after the death of Ros Myers. It appears she left something behind, something which provides a catalyst for Ruth and Harry to move closer. ...

Its one shot time again! This one is set ten years after the end of S10, in an AU universe. I think its uplifting, but Im no judge of my own writing. I rated it T to be on the safe side, given the su...

One shot only, this is a somewhat OOC romp featuring most of the Grid characters from S9. Beth, Tariq, Dimitri and Alec make an appearance, along with Ruth and Harry. Please forgive my self-indulgenc...

Id long ago promised myself Id put together another one shot featuring Ruth and Ros - a favourite pairing of mine – but not wanting to overdo a good thing I have waited a while to revisit these two. ...

Its one shot time again. All is explained within the story. And I just cant write these blurbs, so Ill stop here. ...

Its New Years Eve, 2009, and Harry is spending it on the Grid, wishing things were different. This is my New Year one shot. ...

Another weekend one shot, and this time I have to acknowledge that having recently re-read kalabangsilvers amazing one shot, "Intricacies Of Life", the premise of that fic may have provided the initi...

This is a one shot I wrote for the holiday season, specifically Christmas. Supposing that a miracle had occurred, and both Ruth and Harry had made it to Christmas 2018, then this is a scenario which ...

My original NYE fic, set as 2010 became 2011. Harry & Ruth cant seem to speak to one another in complete and comprehensible sentences. One shot. ...

This is another weekend one shot set after Ruths return from exile. Other Grid characters feature. Again, the title came to me in the wee hours, and so I had to write something to fit it, (although p...

My one-shot for New Year, and the title tells us when it takes place. All is explained in the story. Kudos own Spooks characters, while I created Gaynor. Enjoy! (I prefer to take my characters off-Gr...

This one shot serves as a preface to a multi-chapter story (called "The Englishwoman") which I will begin to post in a few days. This is set late in S10, drifting off into an AU scenario. ...

Another one shot (and I hope I am not repeating myself in too obvious a manner. TBH, I cant tell.) Set in a S10 where Jim Coaver still lives, and the Gavrik mob are packed off early. ...

Its that time of the week again! One shot only, not an original idea, but a different approach. All is explained as the story progresses. ...

This is a Christmas story set well into the future, so not everyone in Spooks has made it to 2038. Whilst a sad story, I also hope it is uplifting and hopeful. My final contribution to Christmas 2014...

This one shot is (possibly) set in early S10, although it hardly matters, since the Grid and Grid personnel get no mention. This is purely a story of family. ...

A Harry-centric Christmas one-shot, where his daughter visits him and with her prompting, he is able to articulate his wishes for the Christmas season. (It covers several different genres, so Ive lef...

Set somewhere, some time in S10, this is an AU scenario which is unlikely to have happened in any universe, let alone canon. I cant tell you anything about it, and youll see why as you begin reading....

An AU one-shot, set some time in S.9. Harry tries to explain to Ruth the rules of cricket. Is that even possible, and does Ruth even care? This is my tribute to the long standing cricketing rivalry b...

Ruth has been living in Cyprus for a little over a year, when she spies a familiar face leaving the market in Polis. Another one of my multi-fic (14 chapters this time) Harry & Ruth stories, with...

This one shot is a follow up story to "Flirting", and it may help if you read that first, although this story can stand alone. Set mid S.5 (and where Cotterdam did not happen, and perhaps O. Mace cou...
