Martin, Rhona: - Rhona Martin was born in London. Her father came from South Dakota, and her mother was a descendant of the Bishop John Hooper who was burnt at the stake for his religious beliefs by 'Bloody' Queen Mary. She studied art and the history of costume at the Bristol Academy of Art and worked for a time as a theatrical designer. She emerged from marriage with two daughters and a desire to get back into the entertainment world, and then worked in a disco and in cinema management. Five years ago she changed to secretarial work in order to have more time for writing. Gallows Wedding is the result.
