Sixth Form Open Afternoon

We hope everyone who came to the 6th Form Open Afternoon enjoyed their look round our school
(especially to see our Library 'Table) :P

Guess the book!

Which book starts with the following line?

"It was a queer, sultry summer, the summer they executed the Rosenbergs, and I didn't know what I was doing in New York."

Have a look at the photo of the author, to the right, and see if you recognize her!
