She takes regular cruise holidays for research purposes and brings these passions along with a Christian background and a love of clean crime to her writing.

Dawn has written a number of bestsellers including her first memoir, 'Hurry up Nurse: memoirs of nurse training in the 1970s'.

She grew up in Leicester, later moved to London and Berkshire but now lives in Derbyshire. Dawn holds an MA in Creative Writing, a bachelors degree with Honours and a Masters degree in education.
