About Elleby Harper
Elleby Harper promised herself she’d be a novelist when she was just ten years old, but a distrust in her own intuition took her down other roads. Previous career incarnations include working as a medical receptionist, a croupier in a busy casino, an exhibition curator, a librarian and a journalist, before finally succumbing to her passion for writing.
After writing in the realms of non-fiction for many years, she has now branched into fiction. She loves to create worlds filled with deceit and hidden agendas, where everyone has their secrets and you never know what’s going to happen next. Life can be boring, books should never be.
A great place to start with any of her mystery series is at the beginning of each book, as they tend to work best that way.
Pursuing a healthy lifestyle took her and her family to regional Australia for clean air, fresh fruit from her orchard and eggs laid daily by her pet chickens. Her guilty pleasures include Oz port wines, dark chocolate (of course!), binge watching Oz soapies and going outback camping with her family to the most remote spots they can find.
