Maggie May, born into the slums of Liverpool at the end of Queen Victoria's reign, had more difficulties to cope with in her life than most: a drunken father, who hated her for not being a boy; the early death of her gentle mother; and the grinding poverty of their lives. But most of all she had to endure the shame and insults heaped upon her by her name, given to her in a moment of spite by her vindictive father - the name of the city's most notorious prostitute, immortalized in song and legend.

Lyn Andrews was born in Liverpool in 1944; her father Joseph was killed on D-Day just nine months later. Lyn was brought up in Liverpool and became a secretary before she married and gave birth to triplets. Once the children had gone to school Lyn began writing, and her first novel was quickly accepted for publication. She has since written over thirty books, many of them Sunday Times bestsellers.
Lyn lives on the Isle of Man, but spends many weeks of the year back on Merseyside, seeing her children and grandchildren.
