    About this audiobook

    Sylvia Stark is a reporter determined to find a real story when she interviews Cinderella's Wicked Stepmother, Charlotte. Her life turns upside down when she discovers the stepmother is not wicked, the princess was spoilt and Humpty Dumpty is not an egg.

    After Sylvia and her camera-man, Stuart, are kidnapped by a corrupt Secret Service officer and then rescued by Humpty Dumpty, she is even more determined to find out the truth behind the fairytale. How is the Fairy Godmother involved in both the fairytale and nursery rhyme?

    An Author's Republic audio production.

    Author

    J.L. Higgs

    I was born in Tampa, Florida but grew up in Outback NT Australia. During my 50+ years I have been married and divorced, a single parent, a mother and a stepmother, full-time employment then unable to work due to chronic illness, but what I have discovered is that no matter what I face in life, having a twisted sense of humour helps immensely. This is what I bring to my writing.

      It is a great concept and I do like the story line but I would think about getting a different reader.
