Lesley Pearse is one of the world’s leading storytellers with numerous No.1 bestsellers to her name and fans who span the globe. A Lesley Pearse book is sold every 4 minutes in the UK and with sales of over 10 million copies, she has dominated the bestseller charts for the last 30 years. Yet Lesley’s success is all the more remarkable because her first book wasn’t published until she was 48. Born in Kent during the Second World War, Lesley’s life changed irrevocably when a neighbour found her, aged 3, coatless in the snow, from then on her life was more incredible than any fiction.
Lesley is a master of the gripping storyline, always introducing her readers to characters that are impossible to forget.

This event will focus upon Lesley’s memoir of her extraordinary life, The Long and Winding Road iand her latest novel The Girl with the Suitcase .
