About this ebook
Everyone remembers where they were and what they were doing on the tragic day, 9/11/2001. This book is about Jane’s story; the days leading up to 9/11, her volunteering at Ground Zero in New York City for six and a half weeks, and the ensuing ten years, full of courage, love, and dogged persistence.

Hailed by The Bookseller as ‘One to Watch’, Jane Davis writes thought-provoking page-turners, exploring a diverse range of subjects, from pioneering female photographers to relatives seeking justice for the victims of a fictional disaster. Interested in how people behave under pressure, Jane introduces her characters when they’re in highly volatile situations and then, in her words, throws them to the lions. Expect complex relationships, meaty moral dilemmas and a scattering of dark family secrets!Her first novel, 'Half-Truths and White Lies', won a national award established by Transworld with the aim of finding the next Joanne Harris. Further recognition followed in 2016 with 'An Unknown Woman' being named Writing Magazine’s Self-Published Book of the Year as well as being shortlisted in the IAN Awards. In 2019 'Smash all the Windows', won the inaugural Selfies Book Award. Her novel, 'At the Stroke of Nine O’Clock' was featured by The Lady Magazine as one of their favourite books set in the 1950s and was a Historical Novel Society Editor's Choice.Jane lives in Surrey, in what was originally the ticket office for a Victorian pleasure garden, known locally as ‘the gingerbread house’. Her house frequently crops up in her fiction. In fact, she burnt it to the ground in the opening chapter of 'An Unknown Woman'. Her latest release, 'Small Eden', is a fictionalized account of why one man chose to open a small-scale pleasure garden at a time when London’s great pleasure gardens were facing bankruptcy.When she isn’t writing, you may spot Jane disappearing up the side of a mountain with a camera in hand.Find out more about Jane at:Website: https://jane-davis.co.ukFacebook page: https://www.facebook.com/JaneDavisAuthorPageTwitter: https://twitter.com/janedavisauthorPinterest: http://pinterest.com/janeeleanordavi/boards/Get a FREE copy of her time-slip, photography-themed eBook, I Stopped Time, when you sign up to her mailing list at https://jane-davis.co.uk/newsletter
