Anne was an international bestselling author, with many appearances on the New York Times bestseller list as well as Livres Hebdo and the Washington Post. Her books have had critical acclaim; the New York Times called her ‘first rate’, and many reviewers note her deeply-felt interest in ethical issues. Over 20 million of her books are in print. The Times selected her as one of the "100 Masters of Crime", and in 2015 she was awarded the Premio de Honor Aragón Negro.
She is best known for her two series of crime novels set in the Victorian era; one series features policeman Thomas Pitt and his well-born wife Charlotte, and the other features the private detective William Monk and volatile nurse (and wife) Hester.
Sadly, Anne died in April 2023, and is much missed by us at the agency as a long-standing client and friend.
