My books are inspired by classic fairytales, reimagined in a fresh, contemporary way. My debut novel Mirror Me is a fast-paced thriller set in the London fashion world, and won the Oxfordshire Children's Book Award, 2024.

 

My most recent novel, The Last Thing You'll Hear, is a modern take on the Pied Piper, shortlisted for the Abingdon Schools' Novel Award.​

"Jan Dunning's 'The Last Thing You'll Hear' provides a dark twist on classic tales - it's a fast-paced, delightfully eerie thriller that also doubles as an ode to the power of music and sisterhood."

Ravena Guron,

Author of This Book Kills
