One Good Man

Beschreibung

Samantha slips into town under cover of darkness, seeking safety. When Jamie finds her, feelings he thought long-dead, resurface. Samantha arrives in town with her small daughter, the clothes on their backs and a scrap of paper with a Barrington address. Jamie finds them by the side of the road that first night. When he discovers she's looking for Nicole Stewart, he realises she's fleeing a bad situation. They'll be safe with Nicole, he knows that. But her pale, frightened face haunts him and feelings he thought long-dead, resurface. Meanwhile, the book club girl-posse are organising a festival, the first of its kind in Barrington. Rose is leading the committee and although excited, is worried it will be a disaster. And she's not sure about Samantha's budding friendship with Jamie. Samantha needs help to unravel the web of lies she's been living. She's not looking for a hand-out, but will she accept a hand-up? Can this small-town community help Samantha and Jamie turn their lives around and pull off the festival of the year?

Autor

A voracious reader, Susan dreamed of becoming a writer from the age of eight. Career advisors told her it wasn't a real thing and suggested journalism. So she became a journalist, then took a zig-zag path to publish her first book in 2020, via a varied career in publishing, marketing, tourism and small business. Susan even worked in State Government for a few years (but she doesn't talk about that much). Nervous about the release of Charlie's Will, she told Bloke while sitting on the sofa one night, that she'd be happy if she sold fifty. Charlie's Will quickly reached Number One in its genre on Amazon - motivating Susan to crack on with more stories and take her writing seriously. Finally. Now Susan is a happy Indie Publisher and offers services to other writers (editing, formatting). She is also the publisher of the Love in a Sunburnt Land Anthology series, co-authored with four (quite brilliant) Aussie women. Susan loves engaging with fellow authors and readers, and she discovered something she thought was kinda funny. A lot of authors tell her they're introverted. It's a writerly thing, apparently. But (and here's the funny bit), Susan isn't. Introverted. Not one bit. Not at all. Speaking and presenting at writers festivals, conferences and libraries is totally her thing. So it's okay to send Susan a message, ask a question and chat on social media. She thrives on it and will always respond. Send her a photo of one of her books 'in the wild' and she'll share it. Everywhere.
