Elizabeth Cooke

Under the name Elizabeth McGregor Elizabeth Cooke has been writing for over twenty years and has had ten novels published. Her first four novels were psychological thrillers – one of which, Little White Lies, was televised by the BBC. In her ‘breakthrough book’, The Ice Child, she used an historical theme for the first time. It was published in seventeen countries in 2000/2001 and film rights were optioned. Liz’s 10th book, Learning by Heart, a contemporary novel, was shortlisted for the Romantic Novelists’ Association Book of the Year.
With The Damnation of John Donellan, the author is moving from fiction to non-fiction, to a genre that feels like a logical and exciting progression and which uses her accumulated skills and experience to splendid effect. She lives in Dorset with her husband.
