About Helen Carey:
Having spent time in various different parts of the world, Helen Carey now lives in Pembrokehsire, West Wales, in a beautiful location overlooking the Irish Sea. She likes to draw on her own life as much as she can when she is writing fiction and her varied experiences of working as a chalet girl, a waitress, a travel agent, an oil trader, a management consultant and in the British Army have all featured in one form or another in her books. She teaches Creative Writing at the University of Wales and is a Fellow of the Royal Literary Fund. Her main aim in her writing is to entertain, and her irrepressible sense of humour often sneaks in to her novels, combining with her sense of character and pace to create compelling stories which have attracted fans from all over the world.
About the Lavender Road books:
'Helen's novels, while not marketed specifically as literary fiction, are of considerable literary merit, written as they are with a lightness of touch, an emotional integrity and an historical accuracy which has brought her respect from critics and readers alike by making this period of history accessible to large audiences worldwide.'
Louis de Bernières
