Idlers Corner/The Exile’s Daughter

Waiting for the release of Idlers Corner on the 14th August, I happened to take a look at one of my earlier books, The Exiles Daughter.

It’s a tale of Anglesey and the Great War – a love story which follows the life of Lauren Bucievski living in exile in Church Bay, on the lonely west coast of Anglesey. When she befriends the likeable and happy-go-lucky Jimmy Jilkes, and when the charismatic Stefan turns up from Poland, her life is thrown into conflict, vulnerable as she is, in her isolation, to the dangers of her own dawning sexuality. The outbreak of war in 1914 becomes the defining factor in how each of their destinies will turn out.

Anyway, I thought it was worth refreshing it and putting it out there again. You can get it for 99p on Kindle.
