Overview: Magdalen Nabb began her career teaching art at a primary school in Holcombe, Greater Manchester.
After moving to Florence in 1975, Magdalen Nabb initially worked as a grape-picker and a potter before she began writing. Soon, she began working at Casa Guidi, descriptions of which she used in her first novel; she also met the physical model for Marshal Guarnaccia. Her first book, Death of an Englishman, was first published in 1981. Belgian writer Georges Simenon was impressed with the novel and reached out to Nabb, who had admired Simenon’s work; the two became lifelong friends. Nabb subsequently published 12 additional crime detective novels, all of which are set in Florence, which she describes as a “very secret city”. She lived near enough to the Carabinieri station at Pitti to stroll there regularly and have a chat with the marshal, who kept her up to date on crime in the city. Her final novel, Vita Nuova in the Marshal Guarnaccia series, was posthumously published in 2008.
