ELIZABETH FREMANTLE is the author of eight historical novels. Her first, QUEEN'S GAMBIT is about the last wife of Henry VIII and has been adapted into the feature film FIREBRAND starring Alicia Vikander and Jude Law. A revised edition of the novel titled FIREBRAND is available to tie-in with the film.

Elizabeth's 2023 novel DISOBEDIENT, winner of the HWA Gold Crown 2024 for the best historical novel of the year, recounts a year (1611) in the life of the young Roman painter Artemisia Gentileschi and the terrifying obstacles she was forced to overcome in order to become the foremost female painter of the Renaissance. The brilliant Emma D'Arcy of House of the Dragon has recorded the audiobook and a screen adaptation is in the pipeline.

SINNERS, another Rome set novel, will publish July 3rd 2025 and is available for pre-order. It focuses on a notorious murder trial and the young woman at its heart: Beatrice Cenci.

Following on from QUEEN'S GAMBIT/FIREBRAND are three further Tudor set novels that follow on from each other: SISTERS OF TREASON, WATCH THE LADY and THE GIRL IN THE GLASS TOWER, all focusing on noted women whose lives were shaped and endangered by their proximity to the Tudor throne.

As EC FREMANTLE she has published two Stuart period thrillers: THE POISON BED & THE HONEY AND THE STING.

She lives in London.
