Fiona Ross Author & Editor

Fiona Ross, like most of us, leads a double existence: In her “normal” life as a writer of fiction and freelance food writer in a gloomy, rainy corner of the United Kingdom called Bishop’s Stortford, she keeps company with two meat-eating chickens and her dog, Parsnip. Meanwhile, her glamorous double works as a gastro-detective whose headquarters is the famous Bodleian Library in Oxford; there she spends her time on the trail of gastronomes and investigating such sticky issues as how much jam Marx liked on his tarts.
