Born in Yorkshire, Emily grew up in the south of England. She got hooked on mysteries at a young age when she came across Agatha Christie's books in her local library. Emily studied and worked in London where many of her stories are set. London's architecture and history has always fascinated her, and she'll happily spend hours geeking over old maps and historical newspapers. Emily lives in Berkshire with her husband and teenage children. When she's not writing and researching, she enjoys running, walking her dog and drawing.
