Dorothy Koomson has been writing novels since 2003 and has built a loyal readership with her talent for psychological suspense and emotionally complex family stories. Her debut, The Cupid Effect, introduced readers to her warm but unflinching voice, and she has published steadily ever since, with titles like My Best Friend’s Girl, The Ice Cream Girls, and The Brighton Mermaid becoming popular book club picks.
Her books often center on women navigating painful secrets, fractured relationships, and moral gray areas. Several of her novels have been adapted for television, including The Ice Cream Girls. She has also contributed to the Doctor Who fiction universe as part of multi-author anthology collections.
Koomson grew up in London and studied at the University of Leeds. She has spoken openly about her experiences with race and identity in the UK publishing world, and these themes inform much of her fiction.
