Zoe lives in Kent with her husband, three daughters and Molly, the muddiest dog in the park.  She began writing over ten years ago, snatching the odd hour when her youngest two children happened to nap at the same time.  She is delighted that the MI9 books have been long and short listed for a number of literary awards. 

 

Her favourite places are the Devon beaches, the Greek Islands and being at home with her family. She loves summer and the sea, and one day would love to surf a barrel wave. So far, her most exciting adventures have been swimming with great white sharks and skydiving, although she doesn't think she'd brave a bungee jump.

​

Zoe worked as a mentor in the local junior and senior schools, and in a chapter long ago, worked as a solicitor in London.  Her favourite ever job was mustering sheep on a motor bike in the Australian outback (huge thanks to the Cresswell family).  Along with writing, Zoe is studying marine biology and also works undercover for a top secret organisation – she would love to tell you more, but is bound by the Official Secrets Act.
