About the Author
Julia Laflin has never gone anywhere without a book since tackling The Little Red Hen at nursery school. As a child, all her pocket money was spent on books. She grew up by the sea in East Sussex. Julia now lives in London with her husband, son and two cats and pines for the coast so the sea is a source of inspiration. She is currently writing a family saga which takes place on the Greek island of Zakynthos. Her non-fiction work includes a book on collecting silver, planned and written for one of the world's most prominent silver dealers, and 'Soup & Beyond' for the New Covent Garden Soup Company.
