Author Information
Wendy Percival's interest in genealogy was stirred by the time honored ""box of old documents in the attic"" and became the inspiration behind her Esme Quentin mystery novels. Wendy shares the intriguing, sometimes shocking, discoveries in her own family history on her website blog and has had several articles published in Shropshire Family History Society's quarterly journal and in Family Tree magazine. She lives in a thatched cottage with her husband in South West England, in a dream location for a family historian-next door to a churchyard. Bronwen Price trained at the Oxford School of Drama and spent many years as a professional actor in theater, TV, and film, before finding her home in the world of audiobooks. She was recently nominated for Best Performance in Audiobooks at the 2022 One Voice Awards. She is based in London, and works mostly from her own professional home studio, a Kube isolation booth. Welsh by birth, though a natural RP, Bronwen can switch between many regional British and worldwide accents with ease. Her voice is warm, reassuring, and clear, making for a very smooth narrative read, and she specializes in authentic and truthful characterization. She has recorded over fifty audiobooks with a wide range of UK and US companies, including the BBC, Harper Collins, Strathmore Publishing, Dreamscape Media, Lantern Audio, Brilliance Publishing, and Deyan Audio.
