About the Author

Lin Anderson was born in Greenock, but has lived and travelled across Scotland. Her five years spent in the African bush inspired her collection of African short stories, one of which was published in the 10th Anniversary Macallan collection and broadcast on Radio 4. Formerly Head of Computing at a prominent Edinburgh school, she now teaches part-time to devote more time to writing and script development. She developed the website www macbraveheart.co.uk (which has had over half a million visitors since 1314) with her husband John and this inspired the book.
