Reviews
I was first introduced to this author some years ago when a friend sent me a copy of her first book and I have just finished reading ‘Perdition's Child’ the fourth in the Hannah Weybridge series.
In Hannah Weybridge the author has created a strong female character who is willing to take risks in her pursuit of truth and justice and who has engaged my imagination right from the beginning. Each book has left me wondering what will happen to Hannah and the other main characters next. The stories deal with issues that are both topical and thought provoking and therefore the crimes committed in the stories are not the usual run of the mill ‘woman found murdered’ scenario found in a lot of crime novels.
Author Biography
Born in Clapham, Anne returned to London after graduating and has remained there ever since. Telling stories is Anne's first love and nearly all her short fiction and novels begin with a real event followed by a 'what if ...' That is also the case with the two prize-winning 99Fiction.net stories: Codewords and Eternal Love. Perdition's Child is her fourth Hannah Weybridge thriller following Dancers in the Wind, Death's Silent Judgement and Songs of Innocence.
