A Newcastle-born writer is celebrating the publication of her debut novel which follows a feisty young Geordie woman who has travelled to Greece.
Inspired by a recurring dream, Jackie Watson's Apokeri Bay is the first part of a trilogy set in Lefkada - a quaint seaside village full of secrets. The novel is described as an uplifting and thought-provoking fiction which was born from a dream about a feisty female protagonist who unexpectedly falls in love with a quaint Greek seaside village.
And the writer, from Tyne Valley, has teamed up with a local creative agency to bring the book to a Whitley Bay book shop, as well as online.
