Trish Harland was born around 70-years ago in the small market town of Huntingdon. Her career as a research scientist bought her to Oxfordshire in 1992 when she relocated to Wantage, where she still lives with her family and two cats. Writing has always been an interest and you can find poems and short stories littered around her home. She has always wanted to write a novel and started her first book, albeit half-heartedly, when she retired in 2005. Trish now follows her first novel, Dead Ringers, with this book of short stories.
