Lucinda's whirlwind

Louise Limerick was born in 1970. In 2004 she won the Sydney Morning Herald's Best Young Novelists Award for her first book, Dying for Cake, which was also chosen as an Australian Women's Weekly Great Read. Currently, she divides her time between her family and her emerging career as a novelist. She lives in Brisbane with her husband, her three children and her two dogs – one of which may be the prototype for that annoying dog, Wilma. Lucinda's Whirlwind is her second book.
