Her work has been published in the UK and the USA, and in translation across Europe, receiving accolades from broadsheets and tabloid newspapers alike, as well as starred reviews from Publishers Weekly and Booklist in the USA. Her novels have been shortlisted for the First Blood critics' award for crime fiction, and the Crime Writers' Association (CWA) Dagger in the Library; she was the joint winner of the 2012 CWA Short Story Dagger.
