About the Author: I first wrote this book twenty two years ago. I had been travelling around the world, and had married an American, who lived in Orange County, California. He worked away a lot, and as I knew no one, I wrote the first version of this story, using my travelling experiences to decribe the rainforests and deserts in my fictional world. I then went on to live an extremely crazy life, adopting three children and having two of my own. So it ended up in the bottom of my drawer. We moved to the UK, where I ran a catering business for sixteen years. I separated from my husband, and in 2007 I ended up being filmed for tv running the'Great Wall of China' and 'London' marathons for charity. In 2009 I was struck down with a painful condition called Fibromyalgia, and I now have mobility problems. I was always a very active person, so I had to find some way to channel my energy, and writing was it. I have already published a self help book for Fibro sufferers called 'Running Away from ME', but this is my first fictional novel. It's a story for all the family and I am really enjoying writing the next installment, my imagination now free to run riot. I hope people enjoy my work as much as I enjoy writing.
