Sarah Knights

Sarah lives in Malmesbury, Wiltshire and for many years has run a wedding and portrait photography business. She has an English degree and has always dabbled in writing, but it was only when her children left home and she had more time to herself that she realised that writing was as important to her as photography. Having enrolled on the MA course in Creative Writing at Bath Spa University, she began writing the novel that had been lying dormant for so long.
The idea for Aphrodite’s Child came to her twenty years ago, when Sarah and her family were posted to Cyprus with the RAF. 
The novel is set in Cyprus in the early nineties and is told through the eyes of Emily, who jumps at the opportunity to escape her life in England, when Luke, her pilot husband, is posted to RAF Akrotiri. Embracing everything the island has to offer, she reinvents herself, only to find that this new life brings its own heartache and tragedy. 
In a modern take on the myth of Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love, Emily is ‘reborn’ and she comes to question everything she thought she knew about herself and her former existence.
