Christine Carrell lives with her husband in Dunedin, New Zealand, but often spends time in the hills around Arrowtown, Central Otago. Since her early years growing up on the family farm, she has travelled widely and lived in the UK, Canada and the Cook Islands. When not writing her next novel or short stories, she enjoys choir singing, the visual arts and spending lively time with her daughters and their families. Her first career was in radiography but most of her working life has been in secondary education. - Wheelers
