Author's Biography
Reviews
‘Most entertaining and well worth reading! It is well written and engaging, rushing you along with some surprises and twists which really keep you guessing up until the last page!’
Nina Lazarus, Esoteric Book Review.
‘For a slender offering, it is a complex novel, written with great care. It is also one of the hardest books to categorize as it fits in both in the thriller genre as well as the much-overlooked esoteric fiction genre. It makes you wonder about things such scary things as destiny, fate and karma. She has an affinity for “place†in this and it turns A Sealed Fate into something a bit more complex than I initially thought. This is the debut novel by Lisa Gordon and it was a very competent one. ’ MyFavouriteBooks
‘Lisa Gordon tells the story at a cracking pace and it passes the time quite amiably. You get a real feel for the settings of Dubai, its exotic colour mixed with danger, which is interesting to read.’ The Astrological Journal
