aka Sarah Silverwood

Sarah Pinborough was born in 1972 in Buckinghamshire, and now lives just a few miles away after a childhood travelling all over the world (her father, now retired, was a diplomat) . . . until, aged eight, she packed her trunk and left the Middle East for a ten-year stretch in boarding school. The memories provide her with much material for her horror and supernatural thrillers . .

Sarah Pinborough recommends

A Lesson in Cruelty (2024)
Harriet Tyce
"A Lesson in Cruelty is a lesson in craftmanship. A dizzyingly satisfying page-turner and an exploration of redemption and damnation. Harriet Tyce at her best!"
thumb
The Gathering (2024)
C J Tudor
"A crime thriller with a vampiric twist. What a cracking read and such assured writing. She just gets better and better!"
thumb
A Better World (2024)
Sarah Langan
"A woman in a troubled marriage moves to a perfect town riddled with secrets, and starts to question everything. Part dystopian horror, part domestic thriller, with a core of wry social commentary, A Better World is gripping literary fiction at its finest."
