Great Lake Tales with Charity Norman

Enjoy a Sunday afternoon in front of the fire at Hilton Lake Taupo and meet emerging novelist - Charity Norman.

This is a unique opportunity to hear Charity talk first hand about her life and her writing, including her new release - Second Chances.

Charity Norman was born in Uganda and brought up in successive draughty vicarages in Yorkshire and Birmingham. After several years' travel she became a barrister, specialising in crime and family law in the northeast of England. Also a mediator, she is passionate about the power of communication to slice through the knots.

In 2002, realising that her three children had barely met her, she took a break from the law and moved with her family to New Zealand.

Her first novel, Freeing Grace, was published by Allen & Unwin in 2010.
