Annie Groves was originally created by the much-loved writer Penny Halsall, who died in 2011. The stories drew on her own family's history, picked up from listening to her grandmother's stories when she was a child.
Linda Finlay is the author of many historical novels, and she has always loved crafting stories about brave women who have broken the mould. She is delighted to continue the Annie Groves legacy and to create new stories to inspire the next generation of heroines.
Adopted from birth, Pam Weaver trained as a nursery nurse working in children's homes, premature baby units, day nurseries, and at one time she was a Hyde Park nanny.
Her first novel, A Mother's Gift (previously published as There's Always Tomorrow) was the winner in the Day for Writers' Novel Opening Competition and was bought by Avon. The inspiration for Pam's novels comes from her love of people and their stories and her passion for the town of Worthing. Leah Fleming was born in Lancashire of Scottish parents, and is married with four grown up children and four grandchildren.
She writes full time from a haunted farmhouse in the Yorkshire Dales and from the slopes of an olive grove in Crete. She is one of a group of volunteer drivers for her local branch library's 'Books on wheels.' Kay Brellend, the third of six children, was born in North London but now lives in a Victorian farmhouse in Suffolk. Under a pseudonym she has written sixteen historical novels published in England and North America.
The Campbell Road novels are inspired by her grandmother's reminiscences about her early life growing up in Islington.
