Fiction
The Sender
by Toni Jenkins
Description
The Sender follows the journey of a mysterious and inspiring unsigned card, interconnecting the lives of four women from different backgrounds and cities who are all facing unique adversities. The card instructs each woman to hold it in their possession for six months before choosing another woman in need of its empowering quality to send it to, and invites them all to meet in Edinburgh two years from the date of its inception. The story takes place mainly in Edinburgh, Glasgow, York and Cambridge with brief departures to Russia and The Netherlands.
The card seems to hold an extraordinary quality that helps the women face their challenges head-on, though none of them can imagine who the anonymous sender is or why they were the chosen ones.
The Sender is based on the ideas of altruism, The Butterfly Effect and 'paying it forward', and shows how one seemingly small, kind act can connect unlikely characters and have a powerful, positive ripple effect.
The Sender is available in paperback, hardback and eBook formats.

A touching book with an original plot and a wonderful message that will stay with you long after you read the last page. Each character has a unique story and you'll find yourself cheering them on the whole way through. I would recommend this to anyone looking for their next read. Very inspiring! Amazon UK
Believe in the "paying it forward" way of thinking? If so, like me, you will really enjoy this book. I didn't want to put it down. The complex, strong female characters tell an uplifting, positive story. A delight to read. Amazon UK
I was so eager to return to this novel time and again - whenever I put it down I found myself thinking about the characters and their respective dilemmas. The original overarching plot kept me hooked, and the individual stories within also kept me turning the pages, wanting to know more about the well-drawn, authentic and engaging characters. The plot is well structured and keeps you hooked until the final reveal. The author has a fresh, original voice and I'm very much looking forward to reading more of her work. Five stars. Buy it! Amazon UK
What an uplifting book to read! Once I had started reading this book, I was captured by it and was eager to continue on the exciting journey of the characters and their families. To my mind, this book is original and leaves the reader with the 'feel good' factor. It keeps the reader guessing right until the very end. Amazon UK
Author Biography
A New Zealander by birth, I live with my Dutch partner in Scotland and have been writing poetry, quotes and short stories all my life. The Sender is my third novel and first to be published. My first novel was used as a testing ground and the second was written during my "mature Eat Pray Love gap year" in a small Italian village. I am currently editing my second novel for publication in 2016 and planning the storyline for my fourth book. My ultimate goal is to publish a novel every year.
