Author Biography:
Up and coming author who has made her mark quickly – with reviews and award nominations. Elizabeth is a 25-year-old cybernetics graduate. A voracious reader in her youth, she would write her own stories when there wasn’t a novel handy. She wrote her first book when studying at University, and it was published a year later. Aside from her 2007 Barrington Stoke title, Devil for Sale, she has also written the hugely successful The Devil’s Footsteps (shortlisted for the Doncaster Children’s Book Award), The Intruders, and The Summoning (Random House).
