Dat Trickster Sun, published in 2014, is Christine's seventh poetry collection. It was published by Mariscat Press and was shortlisted for The Michael Marks Awards for Poetry Pamphlets in 2014.

This collection of English and Shetland dialect poems has been described as "a more metaphysical take on life but, more often than not, the poems are rooted in landscape, in nature and in the human condition."

Since publication, this collection has been translated into Italian by Prof Francesca Romana Paci, Questo sole furfante. This bi-lingual version was published by Nuova Trauben, Torino, Italy in 2015.

Francesca worked closely with Christine and the collection was launched in Sardinia, at Ottobre in Poesia, the literature festival held in Sassari in October 2015.
