Her bestselling mystery series features laid-back First Century Roman detective Marcus Didius Falco and his partner Helena Justina, plus friends, relations, pets and bitter enemy the Chief Spy.

She has won the CWA Historical Dagger, the Dagger in the Library, and a Sherlock for Falco as Best Detective.
