about this author

I am the author of two historical novels set in fourteenth-century England: The Traitor's Wife: A Novel of the Reign of Edward II and Hugh and Bess. Both are being reissued this year by Sourcebooks.

I have recently completed The Stolen Crown, a novel set during the Wars of the Roses. It features Henry Stafford, Duke of Buckingham, and his wife, Katherine Woodville, as narrators. It is to be released by Sourcebooks in spring 2010.
