With over one hundred stories and serials published in the UK and overseas, Elizabeth
McGregor is a seasoned and well-reviewed English author who made her
American debut with The Ice Child, an epic novel that journey's into the
heart of the Arctic. By delving into the historical intrigue of Sir John
Franklin's infamous adventure, McGregor ventured in a new direction,
departing the psychological thrillers that have been her mainstay.
In previous incarnations, McGregor worked as "a hopelessly bored but
solvent civil servant, a happy but frequently overdrawn teacher, and an utterly
ineffective and very nearly bankrupt antiques dealer." She has also written
several scripts for television. She is married with one daughter and lives in the Blackmore Vale in Dorset.
