Person
MOLLY GREEN has travelled the world, unpacking her suitcase in a score of different countries which often became her new place of work. On returning to England, she set up an estate agency business which she ran and expanded for twenty-five years. Eventually, she sold her business to give herself time and space to pursue her dream to write novels. She has since moved to a village outside Lewes in East Sussex and writes her novels from a railway carriage in the garden, and hopes her new rescued cat, Betsy, will in time stroll over to keep her company.
