Sonia Case is the youngest daughter of German/Austrian refugees who arrived in England shortly before the outbreak of war. Born in the 1950s, the first child of Ruth who married Josef, a new widower and father to two young girls, she grew up knowing little of her parents’ harrowing experiences.

She developed an early love of theater and pursued acting in her mid-twenties before entering the world of advertising during the heady 1980s. Stories remained central and a long teaching career allowed her to share a love of literature, theatre and the rich world of the imagination.

Burying the Ghosts is Sonia’s first novel.
