This is a story of the author writing a story. It always needs something to catch the imagination and to start the flow of ideas turning into words. For me, this time it was hearing church bells in the middle of a summer night… That really did happen… And I was off…

I became Saskia Stevens, and I followed her lead from her discovery of Molly Jones’s tombstone to ‘time-slip’ into her life and those of her friends and family. Her story took me to see rural life in 19th-century England, to the terrible life of slaves on a Jamaican sugar plantation, and to experience the joy and fears of an adventure: travelling to South Africa, including becoming shipwrecked on an undiscovered tropical island on the way.

Evelyne Morris was born in England towards the end of WW2, in 1944, but she comes from an international cultural background. Her grandparents were French/Italian and Maltese/Greek, and she was brought up in a college with foreign students from all over the world – Europe, the Far East, the Middle East, Africa and South America. She has a brother and sisters-in-law from Spain, France, and Japan, and she has daughters-in-law from Brazil and South Korea. She started writing after retirement, and this is her fourth novel.
