Hello - thanks so much for visiting. I'm delighted to introduce my new novel, THE GOLDEN HOUR, which is coming soon in April 2025 from Simon & Schuster. If you like stories which bring to life forgotten history and weave together amazing true events with page turning fiction you've come to the right place. I'm always looking for the 'diamond in the dust heap' as Woolf put it - those irresistible events which make you think: why doesn't everybody know about this? Wherever we have travelled our books have come too, and after twenty three moves around the world I've finally unpacked them in a library in the old Georgian house we've just restored. I love the research for each book, and they all have elements I most enjoy reading about myself - family secrets, epic love, real historical figures making cameos, beautiful houses, and amazing locations. Every book starts with a question, and writing the story is a way of answering that. Each story also has at its heart something I love, whether that's travel, art, photography or perfume. I've written about the girls who flew Spitfires, the little known 'artist's Schindler' in the south of France, and the women who fought and reported the Spanish Civil War. Historical fiction is like time travel and I love how it lets you see how people made sense of their lives in difficult times. Writing is a conversation - when you finish writing a story it belongs to the reader. What I hope is that when you reach the last page you feel this is a beginning, not an end, that these characters will live on in your imagination and you might find yourself wondering what they are going to do next. Now these stories are yours. Happy reading - Kate
