'The Angel Bug', Ann Foweraker's fourth novel, is set at the world famous Eden Project in Cornwall, UK. This is a contemporary light thriller combining science fact and fiction, told by the people at the heart of the discovery.

'The Angel Bug', Ann Foweraker's fourth novel, is set at the world famous Eden Project in Cornwall, UK. This is a contemporary light thriller combining science fact and fiction, told by the people at the heart of the discovery. It all starts simply enough with the discovery of a problem with the leaves of the 'miracle tree' growing in the tropical biome but it ultimately leads to world changing consequences. The Angel Bug - blurb 'These memoirs may be the only evidence left of what really happened, where it came from and how it spread.' When Gabbi Johnston, a quiet, fifty-something botanist at Eden, was shown the unusual red leaves on the Moringa tree, she had no idea what was wrong. What she did know was that the legendary Dr Luke Adamson was arriving soon - and that he would insist on investigating it. This is the unassuming start to a maelstrom of discovery and change - with Gabbi swept up in it. What starts out as an accident turns into something illicit, clandestine and unethical - but is it, as Adamson claims, really all for the best?
Autorenporträt
About the Author - Ann Foweraker I am poet, teacher, mother, author ... and each incarnation has had an ascendancy in my life - now is the time of the author. I have to write poetry, it makes me, and stories weave themselves in my head even when I'm not writing, but from the moment I went to school I knew I wanted to teach - becoming a teacher when it was more of a vocation than an occupation - gaining my BEd degree in the seventies. Marriage took me from Berkshire, where I was born, to live in glorious Cornwall where the novel writing blossomed, while taking an extended break from formal teaching to bring up our four boys, but only came to fruition as they left the nest. My books are all available from PendownPublishing.co.uk in all e-formats and are also available on Amazon for Kindle. The paperback books can be ordered from any bookshop, worldwide, using the ISBN number. Please follow my blog on annfoweraker.com where you'll get an insight into the things I'm into, from belly dancing to sandsculpture, health and nutrition, poetry and, of course, writing.
