    7. marec 1948 – 14. apríl 2013

    A. S. A. Harrisonová je známa svojím debutovým románom a jej ponorom do psychológie postáv. Jej práce sa často zaoberala zložitými vzťahmi a temnejšími aspektmi ľudskej povahy, čím si získala uznanie pre svoj jedinečný štýl. Hoci jej bola pridelená krátka autorská kariéra, jej literárne dedičstvo pretrváva v dielach, ktoré skúmajú napätie a tajomstvá vo vzťahoch. Jej schopnosť vykresliť napätú atmosféru a uveriteľné postavy čitateľov zaujala a nadchla.
