First the weather, now the news. Carol Kirkwood, everybody’s favourite forecaster on BBC Breakfast, has written her first novel.
Under A Greek Moon is a sweeping saga set on the fictional Greek isle of Ithos and amid the glamour of Tinseltown in which flame-haired Irish heroine Shauna O’Brien finds love, loses it, finds it again, has it snatched from her and ultimately retraces her teenage dream.
It won’t win the Booker Prize but Carol will be happy if the book is a beach holiday bestseller. ‘I loved the whole process,’ she says. ‘At school I used to love writing essays and my teacher encouraged me. But I never dreamt that one day I’d write a novel.’
