Robin Stevens is the award-winning and best-selling author of the Murder Most Unladylike mystery series. She was born in California and has been making up stories all her life. When she was 12, her father handed her a copy of The Murder of Roger Ackroyd and she realised that she wanted to be either Hercule Poirot or Agatha Christie when she grew up. She spent her teenage years reading a lot of murder mysteries and hoping that she'd get the chance to do some detecting herself (she didn't). Robin lives in Oxford.
