Lilian Snipe by Heidi Soder


Lilian Snipe will be seen, heard and much more. She’s a lady who can hold a grudge with the derision and power of a thousand tempers, and a woman never to be crossed. She resides in a secret place only known to her closest associate – Lucy Delamarney, a young woman with a sad and precious past who finds life too challenging without the protective companionship of her bizarre and extraordinary confidante.

Two personalities, drawn together by events that would change their lives and those around them forever. Kind, loveable Lucy, dangerously led by a woman intent on self-destruction. With a mind full of misdemeanour and an ambush at every turn, Lilian’s hatred for all who come between her and Lucy results in barrage of wickedness and mistrust.

   
 

About Heidi Soder

Heidi was born in Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire, the fourth child of a London fireman. She began writing fiction over twenty years ago. After winning several short story competitions, she published two books: Bradley Pluck and the Skydrivers (2006) and Frogleboggleyes (2006), both aimed at 7-11 year olds.

Heidi says: "I am not an academic. I excelled at English in school and I write in the same style as I speak. No elaboration, no PhDs, just the way I see it. Writing about sex and psychological suspense is rewarding, exhilarating and mischievous. I can crawl between the pages of my book and have a ball. The sheer magic of literature provides escapism and self worth. I write for my pleasure and I hope people enjoy reading Lilian Snipe as much as I have enjoyed writing it."
