Born in Northern Ireland, she fell in love with historical fiction at a young age, when exploring local castles, such as Carrickfergus, and nearby archaeological digs - and discovering some ancient bones herself. While completing a degree in history, she became fascinated by the strong women who were silenced in record, and was inspired to start exploring their lives. Her first novel, \u003ci\u003eThe Handfasted Wife\u003c\/i\u003e, was shortlisted for the Romantic Novelists' Association Awards, and \u003ci\u003eMistress Cromwell\u003c\/i\u003e was widely praised as a timely feminist retelling of Tudor court life. Her novels are known for their intricacy, depth of research and powerful stories. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFor more news, exclusive content and competitions, sign up to Carol's newsletter at: www.carolcmcgrath.co.uk \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFollow her on Facebook: \/CarolMcGrathAuthor1 \u003cbr\u003eAnd Twitter: @CarolMcGrath","brand":"Headline Accent","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44562953339117,"sku":"9781786157447","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_d1d75519-1e36-49c6-b7e3-9b8e4485dabc.jpg?v=1701838780","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/the-stone-rose-the-rose-trilogy-9781786157447","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
