I can’t wait for The Set-Up to publish. In fact, I’m particularly excited about this one, because for the first time Waterstones have joined forces with my publishers Simon & Schuster, and we’ve produced a special edition that will ONLY be available in Waterstones shops. This will have a different colour cover AND contain exclusive content you won’t find in ordinary copies – extra chapters revealing some of the background to the characters’ powers… playlists for each main character… and a question and answer session with me, in which I reveal which authors have inspired me, whether or not I’ve ever had a paranormal experience, and which psychic power I would like to have!
Sophie was born and brought up in London, where she still lives with her teenage son. She has worked as a journalist and a magazine editor, but fell in love with writing after being made redundant and enrolling in a creative writing course. She burst into the publishing world with Girl, Missing her debut novel (published 2006), which tallied up numerous award wins nationwide, including the Richard and Judy Best Kids’ Books 2007 (12+ category), The Red House Book Award and The Manchester Children’s Book Award. She was also longlisted for the Branford Boase award, which commends debut authors, and the coveted Carnegie Medal.
