Barbara Greig

Born in Sunderland, Barbara enjoyed twenty fulfilling years teaching History and Classical Civilisation in sixth-form colleges before leaving to pursue her love of story-telling. She has a passion for hiking and dancing, the perfect antidotes to long hours of historical research and writing, as well as for travel, and wherever possible, she walks in the footsteps of her characters. Beyond The Shetland Sea is Barbara's third novel, following Secret Lives and Discovery.
