About the Author:
S. L. Russell was born in 1951 and educated at Rochester Grammar School and Durham University, where she studied History. She's done a few things in her life: played the piano in a ballet school, worked in Woolworth's, scrubbed steps in hospitals, and taught English in Indonesia, among others. Before leaving to raise two daughters, now adult, for 12 years, she taught children with special educational needs and enjoyed it immensely. At around the same time, she spent 17 years as a Samaritan volunteer.
Even as a child, Sue knew she wanted to write. At around 12 years of age, she had a clutch of rejection slips she was quite proud of in a perverse kind of way. Her first book was 'Leviathan with a Fish-hook' (2009) and her second book was 'The Monster Behemoth' (2010) followed by her third, entitled 'The Land of Nimrod' (2011). A stand-alone called 'A Shed in a Cucumber Field' came out in 2014, followed in 2016 by 'An Iron Yoke.' The genre is contemporary British Christian fiction. She writes without apology for the greater glory of God, but the stories are neither preachy nor pious but realistic, with characters that have patchwork histories, doubts, flaws and failures, rather than haloes.
Sue lives in Kent UK with her husband and Rosie the dog. Her other love is music: she sings, plays the flute and is a church organist.

This book gains your full attention on the first page and I found myself picking the book up as soon as I had time to sit. The author quickly moves on to building up a full picture of the central characters and the murder around which the whole book is based, and then from there leads the reader gently through the intriguing plot. I particularly enjoyed the way the whole story came together at the end of the book.
