The perfect gift—in any amount—with that personal touch of classic old world charm.
A journalist and novelist originally from Melbourne, and still dividing time between Australia and San Francisco, Kate Veitch is a very well-known writer in her homeland, and seems likely to be much more well known here in the U.S. Her newest novel, Trust (Plume), a bestseller in Australia, and just-published here, is the story of a woman working very hard to keep it all going, and doing so, when forces out of her control begin to present themselves. "Trust is a novel on a panoramic scale, in some ways reminiscent of 19th-century traditions, full of characters and incidents, drama and tragedy. It is fast-paced for a narrative containing so much detail. Each main character is ... satisfyingly well-rounded." - Dorothy Johnson, Sydney Morning Herald. "Shifting between the perspectives of this extended family's members, she once again demonstrates her gift for vividly and sympathetically creating a rich domestic milieu." - Patricia Maunder, The Sunday Age M magazine.
