Morag Joss is an English-born Scottish writer. She is the author of eight novels, including the Sara Selkirk series, and ''Half Broken Things'',〔Bernas, Ron. ("Happiness is a life that isn't their own" ) (Review). ''Lawrence Journal-World'', 30 October 2005, p. 2E. Retrieved on 30 May 2013.〕 which won the Crime Writers Association (CWA) Silver Dagger Award. She began writing in 1996 after a short story of hers was runner-up in a national competition sponsored by ''Good Housekeeping'' magazine. A visit to the Roman Baths with crime writer P.D. James germinated the plot of her first novel, ''Funeral Music'' (1998), the first in the Sara Selkirk series. It was nominated for a Dilys Award for the year's best mystery published in the USA. Her later novels have moved increasingly towards literary fiction. In 2008 she was a Heinrich Böll writer in residence on Achill Island, County Mayo, Ireland. ''Half Broken Things'' was adapted as a television film in 2007, starring Penelope Wilton. In 2009 her sixth novel, ''The Night Following'' (2008) won a coveted Edgar Award nomination in the Best Novel category.〔Flood, Alison. ("'Edgars' shortlist heralds Poe bicentenary" ).
