Pat Young grew up in the south west of Scotland where she still lives, sometimes. She often goes to the other extreme, the south west of France, in search of sunlight. Pat never expected to be a writer. Then she found a discarded book with a wad of cash tucked in the flyleaf. ‘ What if something awful happened to the person who lost this book?’ she thought, and she was off. Pat knew nothing of writing, but she knew a thing or two about books, having studied English, French and German at Glasgow University. A passion for languages led to a career she loved and then a successful part-time business that allowed her some free-time, at last. Pat had plans, none of which included sitting at her desk from daybreak till dusk. But some days she has to. Because there’ s a story to be told. And when it’ s done, she can go out to play. On zip-wires and abseil ropes, or just the tennis court. Pat writes psychological thrillers. Till the Dust Settles is her debut, from Bloodhound Books.
