About the author

Patricia was raised in a small town in New Zealand. From the age of five she rode horses which her family owned and trained, often winning prizes in the local horse shows. During her early life, her parents had lived off the land, initially share-milking and later as horticulturalists. During the school holidays, Patricia and her various horses were regular visitors to neighbouring farms. She remembers the friendly farm dogs, waking with roosters at dawn and picking the wild blackberries to be served with fresh cream straight from the cows. She loved the rural life and even when her family moved to the town, she continued to spend her holidays on the farms with the horses and animals she loved.
After completing her nursing studies and qualifying as a Registered Nurse, Patricia spent six years abroad, living in Australia and Europe doing a variety of jobs between her nursing roles. She returned home to start a family and now resides in on the Hibiscus Coast of New Zealand where she has retired and instead of just reading fiction, she is fulfilling her passion of writing fictional novels. Her passion for the great outdoors and wildlife is evident in all her books.
Patricia writes Christian suspense novels about social justice and courageous women who aren't afraid to make a stand for what is right.

Reviews

[Joan R. Craven · Rating 5 out of 5]

Once again, Patricia Snelling has written another beautiful book!

Rescue Net is a beautiful story about a group of people who really want their life to have mattered and helped others. Three generations have already taken the reins and led the work at Rescue Net and other similar agencies. Now that Ruby has completed her education, she is ready to help out.

Ruby has arrived at Rescue Net where they work behind the scenes to rescue children who are being trafficked in the child sex trade. The book is exciting, but never shows anything off color or vulgar. These are wonderful people who risk their lives to save suffering of others! And of course a wonderful love story develops between some of the young workers! The story is well written with several additional story lines. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!!! I am anxiously waiting on her next novel!!!
