Christobel Kent
Christobel Kent is the author of the Sandro Cellini detective series, set in Florence. The Cellini novels draw on the author's own knowledge of Florence, a city that, as she told Cambridge News in 2013, she wasn't sure she wanted to live in. “I thought it would be hideously touristy and a nightmare, but actually I fell in love with it. I stopped noticing the tourists and realised it’s beautiful and atmospheric, and has this extraordinary history of power and culture mixed together, that you can’t avoid.” She lives in Cambridge.
