Theresa writes with a passion. Her books have been translated into
many languages, and filmed for television and dramatised on radio.
She is a superb storyteller who cleverly enables her readers to
stand in the shoes of her characters and see what it really feels
like to be fighting against the odds.
Theresa won the Carnegie Medal for 'Whispers in the Graveyard' and
the Kathleen Fidler award for 'Simon’s Challenge', which was also
televised. 'Kezzie' was shortlisted for the Federation of
Children’s Book Group Award, was serialised in My Weekly and
televised by BBC Scotland. Its sequel 'A Homecoming for Kezzie' was
also serialised in My Weekly.
She has also written 'Death or Glory Boys', 'Remembrance' and, for
younger readers, 'Blair the Winner!', 'Name Games' and the 'Dream
Master' series. 'The Medici Seal' also received wide acclaim.
"One of those rare books that makes you want to put your life on hold for as long as it takes to finish it." Independent"
