Tori de Clare, born 1970, grew up in Manchester, UK. A private piano teacher and mum of four, she began writing in 2008. Her debut novel, Either Side of Midnight was released in 2013 and the popularity of the book persuaded Tori to write a trilogy! The Darkness Visible followed in 2015 and Shadows to Ashes was released in 2017 to very positive reviews. Tori is now working on an entirely new novel which is set to be released in 2019. Tori believes in mixing work with pleasure. Her hobbies include music and writing, which is also her living. She doesn't want to be doing anything for hours a day which is not enjoyable. She's passionate about reading and loves the work of Ian McEwan and Maggie O'Farrell in particular. Exercise is a chore, but she forces herself to one Zumba class per week to ward off writer's bottom! And whenever possible she takes regular breaks to find the sun, England being somewhat allergic to it! People are her thing. Family is her anchor. Humour keeps her sane. Her first book is dedicated to her parents. Her dad who was an avid reader and died when she was just 18, and her mum who taught her to play the piano.
