Cox was born in Blackburn, Lancashire, and was one of the 10 children of an alcoholic father. In 1956, she married Kenneth Cox and they had two sons. When her children were of school-age, she began college, and was offered a place at the University of Cambridge, but family commitments did not allow this. She eventually became a teacher and wrote her first novel, Her Father’s Sins (published 1987), after her friend brought her paper and pens to keep her occupied while Cox was in hospital.
