Alice Hunter channels her extensive background in psychology and nursing, honed through work in psychiatric settings and as an NHS nurse, into her fiction. Her subsequent experience as an interventions facilitator in a prison, working with individuals convicted of violent crimes, provided her with profound insights into the criminal mind. She expertly leverages this unique perspective in her writing, exploring the darker facets of human psychology and character motivations. Her narratives are marked by psychological depth and compelling plots that reflect her expertise in criminal behavior.
