Becca Day lives in the middle of the woods in Surrey with her husband, two daughters and cocker spaniel. She studied acting at Guildford College and went on to start her own Murder Mystery theatre troupe. It was this move that inspired her love of crime fiction, and when she sold the company she threw herself head first into crime writing. The Girl Beyond The Gate was an instant Amazon bestseller and her exploration of the dark side of families has continued into the rest of her novels. Aside from writing, she is also Head of Membership & Marketing at leading literary consultancy Jericho Writers.
