Ellie Marney was born in the tropical northeast of Australia, and has lived in Indonesia, Singapore and India. Now she writes, teaches, talks about kids' literature at libraries and schools, and gardens when she can, while living in a country idyll (actually a very messy wooden house on ten acres with a dog and lots of chickens) near Castlemaine, in north-central Victoria. Even though she often forgets things and lets the housework go, her partner and four sons still love her. Ellie's short stories for adults have won awards and been published in various anthologies. Every Word is her second novel for young adults.
..".. the intensity of Rachel's and Mycroft's relationship is a
solid hook, drawing the reader into quickly accelerating action and
suspense. Peppered with liberal references to Sherlock Holmes,
including a visit to 221B Baker Street, Every Word is a
combustible mix of romance and murder mystery, and will appeal to
young adult readers who like a good dose of adrenaline with their
literature." - VOYA Magazine
