Helen Moss grew up in the beautiful rolling countryside of Worcestershire and a remote corner of Saudi Arabia. Helen now lives in a village near Cambridge with her computer-scientist husband, two sons, and some dogs and hens. When she's not writing, she likes walking in the countryside with the dogs, running (without the dogs, who just trip her over), climbing up mountains and skiing down-and reading, of course. helenmoss.org.uk Solomon Hughes studied graphic design at Pratt Institute in his hometown of Brooklyn, New York.
