Susan Higginbotham

    Táto autorka sa špecializuje na historickú fikciu a literatúru faktu zasadenú do stredovekej a tudorovskej Anglicka a nedávno do Ameriky devätnásteho storočia. Jej hlavným cieľom je demýtizovať historické postavy, rozptyľovať stereotypy a mýty, ktoré sa okolo nich stáročiami nazhromaždili. Pritom zostáva verná známym historickým faktom a zvyklostiam doby, v ktorej jej postavy žili. Na oživenie svojich postáv využíva primárne zdroje aj moderný historický výskum.
