Laurel Bestock is a professor of Egyptology and Archaeology at Brown University.

Beyond excavation, her interests include ancient Egyptian art, as well as archaeological methodology and digital recording.

She has since published eight more novels, all but one set in New England.

Among her novels are national bestsellers, Indie Next picks, and a Barnes & Noble Discover Great New Writers pick. She has a B.A. in English from Providence College and a master’s degree in English Literature from New York University. She lives in the beautiful coastal town of Newburyport, Massachusetts (home of the amazing Newburyport Literary Festival, for which she is a member of the steering committee). Her busy household includes one husband, a rotating cast of three teen and young adult daughters, and two exuberantly shedding golden retrievers. Her new novel, Down with the Shipmans, which is set on the New Hampshire seacoast, will be out June 2, 2026.
