Her books include: Cover Her Face, Innocent Blood, Shroud for a Nightingale, The Black Tower and A Taste for Death .

When writing a novel, she explains that it is important to plan out all the details of the novel, especially when writing a mystery, to create a successful story. Often, she spends as much time researching and outlining as she does writing, giving her the edge on the very formal structure of mystery novels. Listen to the P.D.

James is that I must wait so long in between new novels! I love the depth of her characters. I love the psychological profiles she presents of each suspect, as well as the victim. I rarely ever really know "who dunnit." As a bookseller at a Borders store, I am often asked for recommendations, and I never hesitate to recommend P.D. James to mystery lovers.

"https://ssl." : "http://www."); document.write(unescape("%3Cscript src='" + gaJsHost + "google-analytics.com/ga.js' type='text/javascript'%3E%3C/script%3E")); P.D. James P.D. James was born Phyllis Dorothy James White on August 3, 1920 in Oxford, the eldest daughter of an Inland Revenue official. The family later moved to Ludlow on the Welsh border where the young Phyllis experienced a childhood which she says had more in common with a Victorian childhood than anything contemporary. She was a well-behaved, quiet child who entertained herself and her siblings by telling and writing stories. When she was 11, the family moved to Cambridge, where she attended the High School for Girls. Her affection for the East Anglican countryside dates from family holidays in Lowestoft. Because of financial pressures at home, she had to leave school at 16, first following her father into the tax office, then working in a theatre where she met her husband, who was training to be a doctor. She was 19 when World War II broke out, and she married Dr. Connor Bantry White less than two years later, just before his departure for the Royal Army Medical Corps. The couple had two daughters, born during the war. Dr. White returned at the end of the war with a severe mental illness which was to last until his death in 1964, so Phyllis had to be the main breadwinner. She attended evening classes and found work as a hospital clerk. By sheer persistence and intelligence, she worked her way up to principal hospital administrator at the North West Regional Hospital Board, London, in charge of five psychiatric hospitals.
