Author Biography

Sally Hepworth is the New York Times bestselling author of nine novels, including The Soulmate and Darling Girls. Drawing on the good, the bad and the downright odd of human behaviour, Sally writes incisively about family, relationships and identity. Her domestic thriller novels are laced with quirky humour, sass and a darkly charming tone. They are available worldwide in English and have been translated into twenty languages. The Family Next Door is Sally's first book to be adapted for the screen. Sally lives in Melbourne, Australia, with her family and one adorable dog.
