WELCOME
Welcome to the website of Wendela Lumley, author of Vermilion Skies, which is available now.
Set in Chile, and steeped in it's myths and legends, Vermilion Skies follows the life of Milana, a strong-willed fourteen year old shantytown girl, who struggles with the legacy of an abusive step father, the daily taunts of threatening drug pedlars who lust after her, and a restless imagination fed by books she finds in charity bags. When tragedy tears through the flimsy fabric of her life it is Santiago, a stranger she finds working by the river who will offer her an unusual means of escape. Find out more on the 'Book' page.
