Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: JESSICA TOWNSEND lives on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia with her dogs, Vivien and Rik. Her pet fascinations include public transport, ancient cities, hotels, opera singers, Halloween, secret societies and gigantic cats - all of which have weaselled their way into Nevermoor, her first series and a city that feels like it belongs entirely to her. (Except now it belongs to you, too.)
