In the Kingdom of Men by Kim Barnes
Raised in a two-room shack by her strict Oklahoma grandfather, Gin Mitchell knows a better life awaits her when she marries hometown hero Mason McPhee. Even so, nothing can prepare her for what's to come when Mason takes a job with the Arabian American Oil company in 1960s Saudi Arabia.
Gin and Mason are given a home with marble floors, a houseboy to cook their meals, and a gardener to tend the sandy patch out back. Even among the veiled women and strict laws of shariah, Gin's life has become the stuff of fairy tales. But when the body of a young Bedouin woman washes up on the shores of the Persian Gulf and Mason disappears, her world starts to close in around her.
I decided to stay in Lincoln (UK) after graduating in 2014, and I currently work from my home studio, which is surrounded by books and my two cats. In most cases, you'll find me holding a pencil in one hand and a cup of tea in the other. I enjoy baking and gardening when I'm not illustrating. I am fortunate enough to live in Lincoln, right near to the gorgeous canal, where I enjoy taking short walks in the sunshine.
