Sara was born in Tamales Bay, an hour and a half outside of San Francisco. She had an older brother, who she once got in trouble when she found his bag of weed and showed it to her mother, thinking it was dirt.

The novel A Pinch Of Snuff was filmed for a three-part 1993 ITV serial starring the comedy duo Gareth Hale and Norman Pace as Pascoe and Dalziel respectively.

A more successful series of adaptations began on the BBC in March 1996 with an adaptation of the first n ...
