Author Snapshot

Christine Trent

Christine Trent's last book, By The King's Design, centered on a young cloth merchant who enters the opulent world of palace renovations when she has the opportunity to work on the Royal Pavilion in Brighton. But when those closest to her conspire against Parliament, she risks losing her reputation, her business. . .and even her life.

Christine writes historical fiction from her two-story home library. She lives with her wonderful bookshelf-building husband, four precocious cats, a large doll collection, and nearly 4,000 fully cataloged books. She and her husband are active travelers and journey regularly to England to conduct book research at historic sites. It was Christine's interest in dolls and history that led to the idea for her first book, The Queen's Dollmaker.
