An absolutely gripping psychological thriller with dark and jaw-dropping twists
Joss Stirling owes her existence to Scotland Yard. In the early
60s, her father, a hotshot detective in the Metropolitan Police,
met her mother, a 19-year-old girl from East London and the Yard's
most inept filing clerk (her verdict). Love over the criminal
records led to marriage and children. Unlike the police detectives
you see on TV, Joss is pleased to report that they are still
happily married (to each other).
Joss was born on the borders of East London and Essex and grew up
in the area. Leaving Essex behind for Cambridge, she went on to
have careers in British diplomacy and as a policy adviser on
conflict and arms at Oxfam. Somewhere along the way she also gained
a doctorate in English Literature from Oxford University. More
recently she has written for children and young adults, winning
national awards in both categories. She has published over fifty
novels that have been translated into many languages. She lives in
Oxford.
This is her first novel for adults.
