Lorraine's debut novel Mum's the Word sounds just like the sort of dark comic story I'd thoroughly appreciate, so I've added it to my Christmas Wish list.

Introducing Lorraine Turnbull
Hello there, I’m Lorraine Turnbull; the author of Mum’s the Word. I was born and bred in Glasgow, and have had a varied career including being a front-line police officer, as well as a smallholder and author. I now live on a pretty smallholding in South West France where alongside learning French I’ve managed to concentrate on writing on a countryside or farming theme.
Mum’s the Word is my debut novel; exploring the intertwined lives of three generations of women. Not everything in the garden is rosy, and the story starts with a dramatic murder. However this is no dark tale; the story is uplifting and full of humour, love and honesty. If you’re looking for an easy summer read with believable characters, this is perfect!
Set on a small cider farm in the West of Scotland, the story visits some beautiful Scottish locations and a never to be forgotten trip to the Cornish Coast! If you haven’t been able to travel recently, this fun story could be just the tonic you need.
