About the Author:

Christine Morton-Shaw lives in Sheffield with her husband and six children. She loves fishing, reading and diaries. Her main ambition is to catch a 20lb-plus carp. If she ever gets rich, she will buy a very big shoe and move her large family into it, as she often feels like the old woman in the nursery rhyme with so many children, she doesn't know what to do. Pub Quizzes help keep her sane, although she seldom wins any of them.

Christine has written many picture books for children and THE RIDDLES OF EPSILON is her first novel.
