Writing about it also means that I get to spend a lot of time in Berlin, which is my second favourite city - my favourite is Buenos Aires.
I am from the North of England but now live very happily in Glasgow with my American husband. If I'm not at my desk you'll most probably find me in the cinema, or just follow the sound of very loud music.

Hi - the cheapest paperback option currently is at WH Smith online http://www.whsmith.co.uk/products/blo...

Also, if you put in a library request they should be able to get it for you (which I would find very cool). I know what you mean about Kindle but I got the free app from Amazon for my laptop and phone and now I'm loving it.

If your book club do read it - which would be so exciting - and you wanted any background info on the research/anything, I'm at c.hokin@hotmail.co.uk(less)
Catherine Hokin I write something else! I write short stories and a blog so I can mix it up when the novels are fighting me.

“The world had been out of balance for far too long. It was time, at last to level the scales.”
Catherine Hokin, What Only We Know

“We haven't been much use to you.' He shook his head as she tried to speak. 'It's best I finally face the truth, even if it is too late to mend things. We thought the world would always be ours, you see. And we're not equipped for what it's become. Your mother is my centre, Liese; Lottie is yours. Let us go; keep what matters safe.”
Catherine Hokin, What Only We Know

“It's not because I'm weak; it's because children are different: children are not meant to die”
Catherine Hokin, The Pilot's Girl
