Lynda La Plante
Lynda La Plante was born in Liverpool. She trained for the stage at RADA and worked with the National Theatre and RSC before becoming a television actress. She then turned to writing – and made her breakthrough with the phenomenally successful TV series Widows. Her novels have all been international bestsellers. Her original script for the much-acclaimed Prime Suspect won awards from BAFTA, British Broadcasting and the Royal Television Society, as well as the 1993 Edgar Allan Poe Award. Lynda La Plante was made an honorary fellow of the British Film Institute and was presented with the BAFTA Dennis Potter Award in 2000. She was awarded a CBE in the Queen’s Birthday Honours list in 2008 and was inaugurated into the Crime Thriller Writers’ Hall of Fame in 2009. In 2024 she was the joint recipient, with James Lee Burke, of the Crime Writers’ Association’s Diamond Dagger award for an outstanding lifetime’s contribution to the crime and mystery fiction genre, and her memoir, Getting Away with Murder, won the True Crime Book of the Year at the Capital Crime Fingerprint Awards in 2025.
