Nicola Upson
Nicola Upson was born in Suffolk and read English at Downing College, Cambridge. She has worked in theater and as a freelance journalist and is the author of two nonfiction works and the recipient of an Escalator Award from Arts Council England. Her debut novel, An Expert in Murder, was the first in a series of crime novels to feature Josephine Tey—one of the leading authors of Britain’s golden age of crime writing. Her research for the books has included many conversations with people who lived through the period and who knew Josephine Tey well, most notably Sir John Gielgud. The book was dramatized by BBC Scotland for Woman’s Hour and praised by P. D. James as marking “the arrival of a new and assured talent.” Nicola lives with her partner in Cambridge and Cornwall.
