About the Author:

Beryl Matthews joined a writers' group when she retired, nine years ago, and started working on her own novel. The result was THE OPEN DOOR (Penguin 2002), based very loosely on her mother's early life. WINGS OF THE MORNING, the second part of the Webster Women trilogy, is to be published in September 2003. Beryl lives in Hampshire with her husband, and is working on her fourth novel and already has ideas for her fifth and sixth! Her hobbies are reading, swimming and golf but, as she says 'Writing takes priority though, and everything else has to wait'.
