I was born in Nairobi, Kenya, as was my father and attended The Valley Road Convent and Limuru Girls' School. I now live in Surrey with my husband and two cats. I have eight grandchildren and love spending time with them. I love writing, and have nearly finished my second book about the plight of the Huguenots in France before and during The Revocation of the Treaty of Nantes in 1685. I also enjoy reading, yoga and playing bridge.
