F. E. Higgins has been fascinated by the macabre ever since seeing a ghostly apparition as a child. Nowadays F. E. travels the lands that these books describe, collecting strange artefacts and the even stranger secrets and stories behind them. THE BLACK BOOK OF SECRETS, THE BONE MAGICIAN, THE EYEBALL COLLECTOR and THE LUNATIC'S CURSE document the results of these eerie explorations and have sold all over the world. When not in pursuit of a story, F. E. may be found in a haunted house in Kent. She sits with quill in hand, a false leg beside her and from the mantelpiece an eyeball watches the words she forms on the page.
