ABOUT THE AUTHOR

 

LINDA DAVIES is half Welsh, half Danish—or half Celt, half Viking—and loves myths, legends of warriors, and the sea. A graduate in Politics, Philosophy, and Economics from Oxford University, she worked for seven years as an investment banker before escaping to write novels. Davies’s first novel, Nest of Vipers, has been published in more than thirty countries and sold more than two million copies. She is a winner of the Philip Geddes Prize for journalism. Davies is married with three children. She lives by the sea in Suffolk.
