Jennifer Saint, Susan Stokes-Chapman and Rosie Andrews: A Potent Mix of Myth and History
Three tremendous new voices in the world of Historical Fiction who have already enjoyed big success discuss their latest books as part of Aye Write 2022!
About Jennifer Saint, Susan Stokes-Chapman and Rosie Andrews: A Potent Mix of Myth and History
Jennifer Saint’s first novel Ariadne was a best-seller and gathered some amazing reviews from readers and critics. In the follow-up, Elektra, the House of Atreus is cursed. A bloodline tainted by a generational cycle of violence and vengeance. This is the story of three women, their fates inextricably tied to this curse, and the fickle nature of men and gods.
Susan Stokes-Chapman’s recent number one best-seller, Pandora is a pure pleasure of a novel set in Georgian London, where the discovery of a mysterious ancient Greek vase sets in motion conspiracies, revelations and romance. Gorgeously atmospheric and deliciously page-turning, Pandora is a story of secrets and deception, love and fulfilment, fate and hope.
Rosie Andrews’ The Leviathan is richly researched, incredibly atmospheric, and deliciously unsettling. Set in Norfolk, in 1643 during a time of political and religious turbulence. It is a tale of family and loyalty, superstition and sacrifice, but most of all it is a spellbinding mystery and a story of impossible things.
