Grey

Writer for television and novelist
Isabelle Grey is the author of six novels - two standalone novels of psychological suspense and four books in a contemporary crime series featuring DI Grace Fisher. Her latest, Wrong Way Home, was published by Quercus in 2018 and was a Sunday Times Crime Book of the Month.

Isabelle was an arts journalist, feature writer and television screenwriter before turning to fiction. She has contributed episodes to such well-loved TV series as The Bill, Wycliffe, Midsomer Murders and, most recently, Jimmy McGovern’s award winning BBC series Accused. Her series finale starred Anna Maxwell Martin and was described by The Times as ‘the most moving and powerful drama on television in a long time’.

She also writes as V.B. Grey
