About Sandra Carrington-Smith and Dave Fennoy
Sandra Carrington-Smith is an Italian-born author who relocated to the United States in the late 80’s after marrying a US soldier who was serving overseas. Although writing was Sandra’s deepest passion since childhood, her dream of becoming a published author had to be placed on hold for several years. Moving to a new country provided several challenges, the biggest one being the language barrier she encountered when she first arrived. In order to become fully integrated, Sandra tapped into her love for reading, and over time her vocabulary grew extensively. She gave birth to three children and devoted most of her time to raising a family. Entering her late thirty’s, Sandra decided to revisit her old passion for writing and penned this remarkable novel of paranormal suspense—Th e Book of Obeah. The sequel, The Rosaries, is planned for audio release in the early spring of 2014.
