My long time friend, Barbara Sanderson, is now World Champion of Squash in her division (70-74). I always knew she was good, remember watching her years ago, the way she concentrated on her matches, her fitness, her dedication to the sport, etc. In fact, it was Barbara who taught me how to play, and gave me my first Lady Grey racquet, a prize from one of her competitions. Congratulations to my very dear friend.

About Me
- Elizabeth Wallace
- Over the past 15 years, I’ve published eight books on travel, local history and historical fiction. Several years ago, after speaking with family members in England, a name popped up that I hadn’t heard in ages. It was the dreaded name of Sawney Bean, a wicked and despicable Scottish folklore character from the 1600s. After researching Sawney and his clan, (the BBC did a documentary and tried to locate his cave) the inklings of a story began forming. The first book of what has become a trilogy, Forbidden describes Catherine MacDonald, who becomes a nun after being left by her mother at a priory. After an unusual encounter with a young woman she undertakes a journey to Scotland where she discovers what really happened to her mother, and the horrifying life she endured just to stay alive. In the second book, Damaged, Catherine tries valiantly to restore her respectability but is thwarted at every turn. Tainted by her mother’s legacy, she is shunned by the church, and by many of her friends. Unhappy and disillusioned with her life, she decides to embark on a journey to the New World. The final book, Expectations, will be published in the fall of 2014.
