Katharine TiernanKatharine Tiernan is a Northumbrian by birth and spent many childhood afternoons on the shores of Lindisfarne. She studied English Literature at York University and worked as a teacher and community artist. By the turn of the millennium, both Katharie and her Australian husband were hankering for the wide-open spaces of the north and moved back to Northumberland. There she wrote her first novel, "Place of Repose: A Tale of St Cuthbert's Last Journey". "Cuthbert of Farne" sees Katharine return to the Anglo-Saxon world of early Christianity. It reflects her interests in literature, spirituality and the inspirational landscape of the north. Read More Read Less
