Much of her childhood was either spent with her nose firmly in a book, or plotting to escape her boarding school, which she hated. Having studied Classics at university, she now spends her time working for the English National Ballet and writing. Her books include historical children's mysteries The Last Duchess and The Lost Island. She lives in Camberwell with her husband and young son.view less
