London, July 2005. London is hit by a series of bombs. Jamie's boyfriend disappears without a trace. Hundreds of miles away in Cornwall, how can Jamie find out what has happened to him?

Autorenporträt
Katharine E. Smith is the author of ten novels, including the Coming Back to Cornwall series. She is also the founder of Heddon Publishing, working with independent publishers across the globe. A graduate in Philosophy, Katharine initially worked in the IT and charity sectors. She turned to freelance editing in 2009, when she also became a mother, and completed the first draft of Writing the Town Read. It took a further five years to find the confidence to edit and self-publish this first book. In the meantime, the amount and nature of the freelance work developed, as did Katharine's understanding and experience of the world of independent publishing. The natural next step was to create Heddon Publishing. Katharine has worked with 50+ independent and hybrid authors to develop and produce their work, from fiction to non-fiction and from children's books to dark, distinctly adult tales. She has also had a second child, and written and published seven more novels, with the Coming Back to Cornwall series the greatest success of her writing career to date. Katharine lives in Shropshire with her husband and their two children. You can find details of her books on her website: www.katharineesmith.com Information about her work with other authors can be found at www.heddonpublishing.com and www.heddonbooks.com.
