Posteriormente se graduó en Estudios Hebreos y Judíos en la Universidad de Londres. En 1999 tuvo la idea de escribir una serie de novelas juveniles ambientadas en la Antigüedad Clásica, y dos años más tarde se publicaba Ladrones en el foro, la primera entrega de la serie Misterios Romanos. En 2007 y 2008, la BBC adaptó las novelas para la televisión, y en 2009, The Classical Association le otorgó un premio por su «valiosa contribución a la difusión y comprensión de los clásicos». Además de los libros protagonizados por Flavia Gémina y sus amigos, Caroline Lawrence ha publicado otras series, como las situadas en el Lejano Oeste o el Londres romano. En la actualidad vive a orillas del Támesis con su marido, un prestigioso diseñador gráfico y autor de no ficción.
