Lyssa Medana is a 50ish year old author living in West Yorkshire, UK. Her works include The Forgotten Village, Digging up the Past, Cats in the Bible, Dinner at Dark, and Tales from the White Hart.

Lyssa also regularly publishes poems, short stories and occasional book reviews on her blog, Always Another Chapter.

Lyssa is fascinated by the odd, the quirky and the unusual and enjoys dipping in to old folklore and English social history, which she shamelessly uses for her writing. Her hobbies include knitting, reading and heckling history documentaries.

The farm shop was almost empty as Hilary bustled in. “Good morning!” she called.

Jed looked up from the papers spread over the counter next to the till. “Good morning, Hilary,” he said. “You’re early.”

“Well, she has to stock up for her new lodger and Lord Peregrine,” Marlene said, from where she was dusting a shelf of tinned beans. “How are you managing, dear?”
