AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Face her demons? Or run?

'After being double-crossed by a devious colleague, career woman Ellie Conlan quits her job on principle. With no idea what to do next, she retreats to Storm Harbour, an idyllic Victorian beach town.

'Ellie's grandfather runs The Storm Harbour Chronicle, the trusted local newspaper. As Ellie is drawn into a story about a development which could split the coastal community - and involves her with the influential O'Neill family - an event she has long suppressed threatens to overwhelm her.

'Dark clouds gather as rumours fly and tensions mount. And when a violent storm breaks and rages, Ellie will finally have to confront her past.' (Publication summary)

 

Notes

    'To all my friends and colleagues around the world who work in all forms of media, and to those who have lost their lives seeking to tell the truth and shine a light in dark corners.

    'Without free and independent journalism our world is threatened.
