  ABOUT THE AUTHOR

  Anne Hart lives in St John’s, Newfoundland where she is a librarian at Memorial University of Newfoundland and the author of a number of short stories, poems and plays. Her much-acclaimed first book, Agatha Christie’s Miss Marple, was hailed as ‘the perfect companion … an engaging work with much of the fascination of an Agatha Christie mystery and a charm of its own.’ She is the mother of a daughter and two sons.
