rogue guardians she chases, has only days to bring her home. As the pair clash
heatedly, masks begin to crack and brutal secrets are exposed that could
shatter them both.

“Everyone deserves a hero. For
all the girls, big and small, who don’t neatly fit into society’s
boxes—Shattergirl is yours.” – Lee Winter
Lee Winter has worked as a
newspaper journalist in almost every state in Australia for the past 28 years.
In that time she has covered everything from courts, police, news, television,
features, been a humour columnist and sub-editor, and of late, a newspaper
glossy magazine’s deputy editor. She has won national awards for her writing
and adroit headlines. When her newspaper was sold and laid off most of the
staff in November 2016, she made the decision to test the waters as a full-time
writer.
Prior to that she has written two
books for Ylva, the Goldie-winning, Lambda finalist The Red Files, a
newspaper-based mystery; and the Australian underworld crime noir Requiem For
Immortals, also a Lambda finalist (finalist in Lesbian Mystery category winners
will be announced in New York in June 2017). When the idea of a superheroes
collection came up, Lee jumped at the chance to write a novella (Shattered)
about a disaffected superheroine on the run and the woman sent to track her
down. This blew out to an almost-novel at just under 70,000 words!
