J.M. Simpson

Jo currently lives in Kent, with her two (occasionally stroppy) teenage daughters, her extremely long suffering husband and her two writing partners Max (who features as Brock in the series) and Merlin, both rescue Border Collies. Jo's debut set of novels are the Castleby series, set in a coastal community and largely inspired by the plethora of time spent in and around the UK's coastline, and the never ending visits to RNLI shops that her children insisted on with a regularity.
