Hello and welcome to www.carolrivers.com
My books are set in London’s East End and span the first half of the 20th century. They are published by Simon&Schuster and this year, have a brand-new style of book jacket. EAST END ANGEL reflelects perfectly war-torn London, more specifically the Isle of Dogs. This horeshoe of land curving into the estuary of the great River Thames was once a vibrant industrial dockland. But today, the financial sector is easily recognizable by the gleaming Canary Wharf tower. Many readers write to say the books’ characters come alive through the fascinating connection between past and present. So if this interests you, why not try a Rivers book, all available on Amazon? For a visual impression of the East End, check out one of my favourite YouTube vids below. Or click on the Video link for more. My very best wishes and happy reading, Carol R.

Hi Shirley, it’s nice to meet you! Thank you so much for reading my books. Amazon.co.uk (online) stock most of them, so I’ll send you an email with the link, if that’s ok? Many best wishes and speak to you soon, Carol R.
Hi Caro lcould you please let me know if Eastend Angel and PEARL OF Pride Place are the same book.
Thanks Anne
Dear Anne
Thank you so much for emailing me. It’s so nice to meet readers, as I’m writing mostly and it’s lovely to get some feedback. Yes, indeed, East End Angel is PEARL OF PRIDE PLACE! Simon&Schuster still have the PEARL title on their website, but hopefully it will soon be removed. What happened was, I had a bit of a make-over this year, my books that is! (Wouldn’t mind a physical one, either!) PEARL was re-titled, to EAST END ANGEL and a new cover was designed at S&S. Can’t quite think why PEARL is still advertized on their webpages, ( I guess that’s where you’ve seen it?) The hardcover of EEA is out next month, but the paperback is a little cheaper and out in October. Have you read EVE OF THE ISLE? If you haven’t, I’d love to send you a signed copy. But only if you fancy it, of course. Just get back to me if you do and I’ll pop it in the post.
Here in Dorset, it’s hot and thundery. I’m working on a plot and am at Christmas and I’m trying to imagine the frosty mornings. Here, on Planet Realtime, even the birds are fanning their little beaks! Well, so nice to meet you Anne. Hope we’ll speak again. All very best for now, Carol R.
