The Author
Salie Thomas was born in 1941 and studied English and History at Tunstall Hall College in Market Drayton. Her first job was working with hunters and show jumpers and she later founded Helshaw Grange Stud for thoroughbred racehorses. Salie lives in Shropshire and Something’s Wrong in Paradise Cove is her second novel.
How the book Came To Be
Salie explains: “I have loved writing since my school days, always submitting short stories to my English teacher. However, my busy family life raising 2 children and 2 foster children, and my career working with race horses meant that I just didn’t have the time to pursue writing. While suffering with long Covid for 8 ½ months, I finally had the opportunity to write, and this drive and focus really aided my recovery.
I chose to set the book in Dartmouth, Devon as it is a nostalgic place for me, having spent many childhood holidays there with my family. The beautiful atmospheric landscape felt like the perfect setting for a thriller.”
