Sue Ransom is a senior headhunter with a long commute, but on the way to work and in the evenings she’s a writer: she wrote Small Blue Thing as a birthday present for her daughter. And she wrote it mostly on her BlackBerry!

She lives with her husband and two teenage children in Surrey and is currently busy on third book in the Small Blue Thing trilogy.
