Hi, I’m Ali!

I love to write stories with a little bit of magic at their heart and often more than a little of the strange. My novels include A COLD SEASON, PATH OF NEEDLES, THE HIDDEN PEOPLE, THE CROW GARDEN and MISTLETOE.

“Hugely enjoyable – perfect reading for a dark winter’s night” – The Richard and Judy Book Club, of A Cold Season

I also write as A. J. Elwood

Latest title: THE OTHER LIVES OF MISS EMILY WHITE.

“A. J. Elwood has carved a solid reputation with her spooky and hauntingly beautiful historical fiction. This novel is no exception, and its brilliance surely cements her place as one of the finest British writers working today in any genre” – Tim Lebbon, author of The Silence

• Visions of Grace – a new novella
  VISIONS OF GRACE, a new novella from Alison Littlewood, is out now from PS Publishing.
  
  

  Katie is almost six. She’s very much looking forward to her birthday party, with her mum Leanne and sister Chloe and of course her very best friend, JoJo.

  Grace has no daughter, no mum, no family, but she loves her friends next door, perhaps especially Katie, since she has no child of her own.

  It’s a good life. It’s enough. So when Grace begins to see things that can’t possibly be there, strange visions that seem to portend something happening to those she cares about, it’s a mother’s love she feels. A mother’s rage. A mother’s determination to protect them . . .
