Dianne Yarwood

Dianne Yarwood worked in accounting and corporate advisory in London and Sydney. She also nurtured a love for cooking and catering. At the age of forty, with three young children, she became very ill, and her life was saved by an emergency doctor. This brush with mortality gave her the courage to do what she'd always wanted to do - write. Dianne lives in Sydney with her husband. The Wakes is her first novel.
