Best-selling author Joanna Trollope has died aged 82, her family has announced.
The writer was known as the "queen of the Aga saga" because her novels often focused on romance and intrigue in middle England, although she rejected the tag as "patronising".
In a statement, her daughters Louise and Antonia said their "beloved and inspirational mother" had died "peacefully at her Oxfordshire home" on Thursday.
