Autorenporträt
Angela Cecil Reid taught children with dyslexia for many years. She and her husband now live on a farm in Oxfordshire and look after a menagerie of dogs, chickens and a flock of rare breed Cotswold sheep. Since her children have left home she has spent more time writing, and also researching her Egyptologist ancestors for a biography. Her debut novel Nile Cat was inspired by her great grandmother, May Tyssen-Amherst's memoir of childhood winters spent in Egypt in the 1870s.
