Essie Fox lives in Windsor, and Bow in East London. She has worked on the editorial side of magazine and book publishing, as a commercial designer – and now she is a full time writer, creating dark Victorian novels published by Orion Books.
The Somnambulist, her debut, was shortlisted for the 2012 National Book Awards, and also featured on Channel 4’s TV Book Club. Elijah’s Mermaid achieved excellent critical reviews. And now, The Goddess and the Thief explores the exoticism of India with the Victorian cult of spiritualism.
