About the Author

Justine was born in Bedfordshire into a family of cat lovers, growing up alongside two tortoiseshells named Moppet and Bow Ring. A keen writer from an early age, she had her first short story published aged 12 years old.

Behind Every Great Woman is a Great Cat is her first book. Justine now lives in London with her husband, Adam. Sadly they don't currently have a cat, so Justine makes do with video calling Figaro, a Barcelona-based cat belonging to a friend. In her spare time, Justine enjoys travelling and drinking too much coffee.
