Schweitzer Klassifikation
Sophie Irwin's debut novel, A Lady's Guide to Fortune-Hunting, was an instant Sunday Times bestseller.
Sophie grew up in Dorset before moving to south London. She has spent years immersed in studying historical fiction, from a dissertation on how Georgette Heyer helped win World War Two, to time spent in dusty stacks and old tomes losing herself in Regency London researching this book.
