Saskia Sarginson spent her childhood in a cottage in the middle of a Suffolk pine forest. Her family kept goats, ponies, hens, and cats, and Saskia and her two younger siblings had the freedom to roam the forest alone. This experience helped inspire her to write her best-selling debut novel, The Twins, which was a Richard and Judy pick in 2013.
Saskia lives with her partner, three dogs and two cats in London. Her four children – identical twin daughters and two sons – are now grown-up enough to have their own homes. When she’s not writing or reading, you’ll find her baking vegan cakes and then working off the calories by dancing the tango or salsa. She finds her twice-daily dog walks useful space for dreaming up ideas for plots.
