She wrote her first book while living in New York and now lives in London. Her discovery of an unpublished series of letters from Wallis Simpson to her second husband Ernest Simpson, shortly before her eventual marriage to the ex- King, Edward Vlll, later Duke of Windsor, formed the basis of a Channel 4 film, The Secret Letters, first shown on UK television in August 2011, and also a biography of Simpson; 'That Woman: The Life of Wallis Simpson Duchess of Windsor'.

It was the story of the pianist Harriet Cohen, who inspired the composer Arnold Bax when she wore a dress adorned with a single daffodil and became his mistress for the next 40 years.Gillian Reynolds described it as "This frank and moving account … beautifully produced." in The Daily Telegraph.
