Toni Spencer spent a large chunk of her youth undertaking intrepid adventures across the globe. Some stand-out characters from that time include; a posse of real pirates, a suspected serial killer, a knife-wielding skinhead in leopard skin tights, a girl-punching taekwondo artist and Tom Selleck. She's looking forward to dragging these characters out of the foggy swamp of her mind and throwing them into a book or three. She currently lives in New Zealand with her partner and two kids.
