Media Reviews
'Wallace gleefully exposes the gossipy though bubbles of the self-righteous and genteel...consistently wry and often joyously funny' -- Herald 'Neatly observed...enjoyably witty' -- Scotsman 'Hugely entertaining' -- Sunday Post 'A rollicking read...with a good eye for what lies beneath the surface' -- Australian Women's Weekly 'Hilarious...a tale of quaint country folk peppered with smatterings of bigotry, raunchiness and intrigue' -- Orkney Today
Author Bio
Rosie Wallace was brought up in Milngavie, near Glasgow but has lived on Orkney since her marriage to Jim Wallace, MP for Orkney and Shetland, bringing up their two daughters. She is a speech and language therapist, and since 2003 has been working freelance, specialising in dyslexia. In 2007, her husband stood down from the Scottish Parliament and was appointed to the House of Lords, so she acquired a title which is only used occasionally! Rosie's interests include cooking, travelling and walking.
