Caroline Lawrence

Award-winning author Caroline Lawrence writes history-mystery stories for kids. Her passion for plotting combined with historical accuracy means her books are beloved of children and teachers alike.

And especially the exciting and surprising things. I write historical novels because nobody has invented a Time Machine.’
