Alexis Hall

Some years ago – never mind how long precisely – having little or no money in their purse, and nothing in particular to interest them on shore, Alexis Hall thought they would sail about a little and see the watery part of the world. Unfortunately, the boat they were in sank with all hands, and they were only rescued by a passing whaler. They have since become a novelist and are the author of Boyfriend Material and Hell's Heart.
