Fiona McIntosh is one of Australia's favourite storytellers. She began her career in speculative-fiction and after worldwide success with 16 novels, moved into lush, historical fiction where she regularly hits the National Top 10 with each new blockbuster released into the most congested and competitive sales season of Christmas. She also writes crime and her Det. Jack Hawksworth series 'Hawk' has been optioned for TV while three of her historical novels have been optioned for film. Her children's picture book will be published in 2025, entitled Harry and Gran Bake a Cake. She hosts one of the country's most successful masterclasses that is highly regarded by the publishing industry, with an enviable strike rate, responsible for some of the newest popular authors in Australia. Her Masterclass debuted in the UK during the northern summer with a dozen writers from ANZ, UK and Europe. Married with adult twin sons, she divides her time between the UK and a farmhouse on the rim of the Clare Valley vineyards of South Australia where she follows her passion for baking, fine coffee (one day she'll roast her own beans) and for acquiring winter boots in the sunniest pace on earth. She's a self-confessed chocaholic. See less
