Traitor and the Tunnel (37 page)

Y. S. Lee was born in Singapore and raised in Vancouver and Toronto. In 2004, Ying completed her PhD in Victorian literature and culture. This research, combined with her time living in London, triggered an idea for a story about a women’s detective agency. The result, A Spy in the House, was her first novel, fol owed by The Body at the Tower. The Traitor and the Tunnel is Ying’s third Mary Quinn mystery.

Ying is also the author of Masculinity and the English Working Class She now lives in Kingston, Ontario. Visit her online at:
