Garthwaite, Kathy: - "Kathy lives on Vancouver Island with the Pacific Ocean at her doorstep. She has had many articles published in magazines on subjects such as horticulture, horses and cottage life. Her favourite pastimes are hiking, golfing and reading. Kathy's novels are based in her native Canada and offer the reader a taste of the stunning scenery, and an insight into the lives of others - the good and the bad."
