About me

After years of living and writing across Europe—from vibrant university towns to the cultural heart of Berlin and even a scenic chapter in Switzerland—I’ve finally dropped anchor in the northern Netherlands. Here, in a restored village bakery turned creative hideaway, I’ve written more than ten books and spend my free time exploring the surrounding waterways aboard my vintage barge. I also spent a long time living in Italy, a country that continues to inspire me—especially Venice, where the spirited amateur sleuth Mafalda Cinquetti first walked into my imagination.
