Born in Malawi to a Belgian mother and a father who ran the tiny 'Nyasaland Times', Michelle moved to the UK when she was three. She was brought up in Wimbledon and, following a Biochemistry Degree from Oxford University, she became a partner in a big City law firm. She gave up the City to follow her long-held dream of becoming a writer. Successfully published as an adult author, the Chronicles of Ancient Darkness ("Wolf Brother") were her first books for younger readers, followed by her brilliant 5-part series set in the bronze age, Gods and Warriors. On the adult side, her first ghost story, DARK MATTER, was a UK bestseller and won massive praise from reviewers and readers, as did her second ghost story, THIN AIR. Reviews for Michelle's gothic ghost story WAKENHYRST have been stellar - "Her finest novel yet” says The Times... "“What a story it is", says The Observer - "Wakenhyrst is brilliant, spanning Fen devils, mystics and the lot of women in Edwardian England.” WAKENHYRST is an Amazon Kindle bestseller. Most recently, Michelle has announced that her WOLF BROTHER series will continue - to the delight of fans everywhere. See the video for some ecstatic fan reactions!
