Nina Roth and Elizabeth Savage come from different sides of the world - from utterly different sides of the social track. But under the skin they are the same: desperate to escape from a past which dragged them down, determined to make an extra mark on the world in spite of appalling personal tragedies.

And the trouble with being a tall poppy is that people always know where to find you ...'Her novels are action-packed; her heroines gorgeous ...I loved it' Daily Mail
