edit data

A nomadic up-bringing, traveling through North America and Europe, made Alexandra Whitaker a perpetual ‘new girl’ who developed survival skills of observation and mimicry that would later prove to be useful writing tools. Necessity also made her a keen language learner. She speaks a few languages well, and a few more in a slap-dash way.

Elder daughter of the internationally best-selling writer Trevanian, she collaborated with him on various projects over the years. She has settled down at last in Spain and France, with her British husband, A. N. Kennedy and their daughter. She writes fiction, and runs a one-room hotel for solitary travelers.

Quotes by Alexandra Whitaker (?)

“Forgiveness” was a word that passed uneasily through her thoughts. It was a fat word, a rancid word that smelled of sickly sanctity, a word used for scolding and manipulating people who have been mistreated. A con man’s word.”
― Alexandra Whitaker, Leaving Sophie Dean

“Wiping the offender’s conscience clean is not the duty of the offended. It wasn’t difficult to guess which of the two sides, sinner or sinned against, had invented the concept of forgiveness.”
― Alexandra Whitaker, Leaving Sophie Dean
