Deborah White grew up and went to school near Slough. She loved to read and write stories on her 1914 portable Corona typewriter and secretly dreamed of being an actress. She went to the University of Leicester where she studied English and French and read lots more books. She got the idea for Wickedness when she read that Samuel Pepys had been to see a mummy on show at the Head and Combe. When she's not writing she draws, reads, goes sailing with her brother and cleans up after her very old cat Martha.
