Margarita Morris

Shortlisted for the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award in 2014 with her first novel, Oranges for Christmas, Margarita Morris brings a love of history to her writing. Margarita studied languages at Oxford and it was as a student that she visited Berlin and saw at first hand the effects of the Berlin Wall on this divided city. Years later this experience led her to write Oranges for Christmas about a family trying to escape from Communist East Berlin. Other passions include the Victorian era. The Sleeping Angel was inspired by the haunting beauty of Highgate Cemetery and the urban legends that surround it. In her Scarborough Fair series, historical mysteries meet contemporary thrillers.
