�Many respectable judges would put Edric in the top ten of British novelists currently at work�as a writer, he specialises in the delicate hint and the game not given away.�

An early contender for this year�s Booker Prize, Robert Edric has won several prestigious awards including the James Tait Black Memorial Award and has published twelve novels. He has been acclaimed as one of Britain�s most compelling and talented contemporary novelists. Robert Edric was born in Sheffield in 1956. He completed his doctorate at Hull University and now lives in Hornsea.

��a highly talented writer whose books give historical fiction a good name. They are distinguished not only by their formal skill and wide-ranging subject matters, but by their hairless, unshowy prose.� The Guardian
