Lucy Martin spent ten years as a city lawyer before leaving to set up a language school and become a writer. Like her protagonist, women’s rights have always been important to her: in 2000, she wrote an article for the Times on sexual discrimination in law firms, something she had spent many years fighting, before setting up Wimbledon Women in Business to support female entrepreneurs.
Stop at Nothing is her debut novel and the first in a series featuring DS Veronica Delmar
