Biographie d'Emily Barr

Emily Barr worked as a journalist in London but always hankered after a quiet room and a book to write. She went travelling for a year, which gave her an idea for a novel set in the world of backpackers in Asia. This became Backpack, a thriller that won the WHSmith New Talent Award. Her first YA thriller, The One Memory of Flora Banks, has been published in twenty-seven countries and was shortlisted for the YA Book Prize.
Emily's second YA thriller, The Truth and Lies of Ella Black, which takes place in the sun-soaked favelas of Rio de Janeiro, was published in 2018. The Girl Who Came Out of the Woods is her third YA novel. Emily lives in Cornwall with her partner and their children.
