Sandfire

by Annette Hudson

For 16 year old Stacey, life in her semi-rural town is the very definition of boring. To escape, she immerses herself in an imaginary future where her heroine leads a much more exciting life. Teeney is a girl assassin who must use her wits and skills to survive in the war torn future. She is given a young apprentice to train, but can she keep him alive when the stakes continue to be raised? As the story unfolds, alternating between real life and fiction, both girls will learn that life is rarely fair, and never quite goes to plan.

About the author

Annette Hudson lives with her husband, Christian in the suburbs of Perth, Western Australia. She is a proud Sandgroper who loves her sunburnt country.

The writing bug struck at age five, when she wrote a 35 page story about the Easter Bunny. It was awesome - you’d have loved it. It’s since been lost to the sands of time so you’ll have to take her word for it.

Sandfire is her debut novel but she plans to do several sequels, and a movie deal isn’t out of the question either. Whether or not Hollywood is on board with that is an entirely different matter.
