Shiver

Alex Nye lives in Dunblane, and is a Fellow of the Royal Literary Fund at the University of Glasgow. She has held many residencies through the Scottish Book Trust, and is the author of several books for children and adults. Her children's novels Chill (which won a Scottish Children’s Book Award in 2007) and its sequel Shiver were inspired by living in a remote cottage on Sheriffmuir. When she is not writing, she enjoys walking her dog, swimming and exploring the Scottish countryside.
