Lorna Cook



Lorna Cook writes dual-timeline stories that blend secrets of the past with the present.

Her first novel, The Forgotten Village, is set in the real village of Tyneham in Dorset, requisitioned in entirety in World War Two and never returned. The story moves between 1943 and present day as secrets about what happened on requisition day are finally revealed.

Lorna lives by the sea with her husband, two small daughters and a demanding dog called Socks.

Lorna Cook recommends

The Housekeeper's Secret (2024)
Iona Grey
"I adored it. So evocative and emotive, as Iona's writing always is, immersing me in time and place. So rich in detail and emotion. I was so invested and the ending caught me by surprise. I couldn't stop reading until I'd raced to the finish line. I hungrily inhale everything she writes and devoured it in about two days."

The Art of Belonging (2024)
Eleanor Ray
"The Art of Belonging is just the loveliest, uplifting novel and fills the soul with joy,"
thumb
The Life I Stole (2023)
Nikola Scott
"Nikola's best yet: 1950s London, a female doctor, family mystery, identity theft. I was immediately drawn into the story, rooting for the characters all the way to the end. Atmospheric and compelling. I loved it!"
