About the Author

In the early 2000s, Natasha Lester made the move from marketing manager for Maybelline cosmetics to writing novels, and she regrets nothing - except that she no longer gets free lipstick. She is now a New York Times bestselling and award-winning author of nine books that have been translated into 21 languages and published all around the world. Her eighth novel, The Disappearance of Astrid Bricard, was longlisted for the 2024 ARA Historical Novel Prize. While she loves to travel, she also loves returning to her home in Perth, where her favourite thing to do is to go for a run beside the beautiful Swan River. Her latest novel is The Chateau on Sunset.
