Sam Michaels

Sam Michaels co-writes family sagas with her mother, Sunday Times best selling author, Kitty Neale. She has also penned her own books, the Georgina Garret series, gangland sagas set in South London, which is where she was born and bred, the council estates being her playground.

After leaving school at sixteen with no qualifications, Sam married soon after and had a son. The marriage ended quickly, and as a single mother, she worked in various retail positions until undertaking an Open University degree. This led to Sam becoming an analytical scientist and then into technical sales where she met her husband. A few years later, they moved from Hampshire to Spain, and now have four dogs and eight cats.

Sam's latest project, The Biscuit Tin Secrets Club, written under the name Samantha Michaels, is a series of six novellas telling the struggles and heroism of a group of friends working in a parachute factory in WW2 and secrets revealed across generations.
