NetGalley reviewer, Author Biography Daisy Wood worked in publishing for some years before leaving to concentrate on her own writing. She has had several childrens books published, both historical and contemporary, and is happiest rooting about in the London Library on the pretext of research. She lives in south London and when not locked away in her study can be seen in various city parks, running after a rescue Pointer with a Basset Hound in tow.
