Novel based on the unconventional relationship between Lewis Carroll and Alice Liddell
Gaynor Arnold was born and brought up in Cardiff. She read English at St Hilda's College, Oxford, where she acted in many plays, notably at the Edinburgh Festival and in a tour of the US. She has two grown up children and worked for Birmingham's Adoption and Fostering service for many years before becoming a full time writer in 2009.
