Rivangare il passato, porta Michael a passare una serata inaspettata...

L'anatra dall'occhio d'oro è il terzo di una serie di racconti che ripercorrono la vita ed i tempi in cui viveva il giovane Michael Grey, egli si rende conto che molte delle caratteristiche e delle abitudini degli uccelli, che ama osservare, si riflettono nelle persone a lui più vicine.

Ambientato a Hastings, nel Sussex, nel dicembre 1960, questa serie riunisce l'affascinante storia ed il folklore di quella zona, esplorando al contempo importanti cambiamenti sociali e culturali in atto durante gli anni '60.

Man mano che Michael Grey apprende di più su questi uccelli, la sua prospettiva sulla vita inizia a cambiare, e le storie servono a ricordare il rapporto critico tra l'umanità e la natura.

Autorenporträt

Isabella is never happier than when she is immersing herself in the sights, sounds and experiences of the 1960s. Researching all aspects of family life back then formed the perfect launch pad for her works of fiction. Isabella rediscovered her love of writing fiction during two happy years working on and completing her MA in Professional Writing and since then has gone to publish five novels, two novellas and a short story collection.

Her first Sussex Crime Mystery series features young librarian and amateur sleuth, Janie Juke. Set in the late 1960s, in the fictional seaside town of Tamarisk Bay, we meet Janie, who looks after the mobile library. She is an avid lover of Agatha Christie stories in particular Hercule Poirot using all she has learned from the Queen of Crime to help solve crimes and mysteries. As well as three novels, there are three novellas in the series, which explore some of the back story to the Tamarisk Bay characters.

Her latest novel, Crossing the Line, is the first of a new series of Sussex Crimes, featuring retired Italian detective, Giuseppe Bianchi who arrives in the quiet seaside town of Bexhill-on-Sea, East Sussex, to find a dead body on the beach and so the story begins...

Isabella's standalone novel, The Forgotten Children, deals with the emotive subject of the child migrants who were sent to Australia again focusing on family life in the 1960s, when the child migrant policy was still in force.
