Deborah Carr, USA Today-bestselling author of The Poppy Field, lives on the island of Jersey in the Channel Islands with her husband and three rescue dogs. An Island at War is set on the island during the Occupation when Jersey was occupied by the Nazi forces from 1940–1945.
Her Mrs Boots series is inspired by another Jersey woman, Florence Boot, the woman behind the Boots (Walgreens Boots Alliance) empire. Her debut First World War romance, Broken Faces, was runner-up in the 2012 Good Housekeeping Novel Writing Competition and Good Housekeeping magazine described her as ‘one to watch’.
