Drawing on her own family history for inspiration, Heather Rose delivers a compelling and heart rending saga of a father and daughter torn apart by a terrible crime. In “A Great Act of Love” Caroline Douglas carries her dark secret to the penal colony of Van Dieman’s Land to begin life anew - but can she escape her past; does she even want to? + It’s no small thing to decide to be a publisher in today’s busy book marketplace but that’s what Emily Riches did. Aniko Press’s first offering is “The Slip” by Miriam Webster who was recently interviewed on Episode 56 this podcast. Aniko also publishes a literary journal and is always on the lookout for new talent.
