    About this ebook

    A Tapestry of True Tales from Then and Now

    A collection of short stories from Clare Flynn, author of five historical novels.

    These stories are loosely based on truth – with a little embellishment here and there to protect the innocent and fill in the blanks.

    Also included are the first two chapters of Clare's fifth novel, The Chalky Sea.

    Author

    Clare Flynn

    Historical novelist Clare Flynn is a former global marketing director and business owner. She now lives in Eastbourne on the south coast of England and most of her time these days is spent writing her novels – when she's not gazing out of her windows at the sea. Clare is the author of eight novels and a short story collection. Her books deal with displacement –her characters are wrenched away from their comfortable existences and forced to face new challenges – often in outposts of an empire which largely disappeared after WW2. Clare is an active member of the Historical Novel Society, the Romantic Novelists Association, The Society of Authors and the Alliance of Independent Authors.
