Rosie Thomas’s standalone novels span from 1982 to 2011 and cover a wide range of settings. Her earlier books lean toward contemporary romance, while later novels like Sun at Midnight (2004), Iris and Ruby (2006), and The Kashmir Shawl (2011) blend historical and contemporary threads into richer stories.
Thomas has a gift for evoking place, whether it’s wartime Cairo or the mountains of Nepal, and her characters feel fully realized.
