My most recent novel, The Blue, is about best friends, Lana and Kitty, who are backpacking in the Philippines when they discover a beautiful yacht manned by a group of wanderers. I also learnt how to how to shuck an oyster, hook a squid, and dive through a kelp forest! I also learnt to scuba dive in Tasmania, which gave me a beautiful insight into the underwater world, and helped me write the free diving scenes within the novel. I spent a month doing a recce of the island, working out where specific events in the novel would take place, as well as interviewing locals, marine biologists and free-divers. I had a wonderful time researching the setting for A Single Breath. But, isolated on the shores of the island, she begins to uncover disturbing details about her husband. It is the story of a recently widowed young woman, who travels to Tasmania to meet her late-husband’s estranged family.
My second novel, A Single Breath, is set on a remote and wildly beautiful island off the coast of Tasmania. Since my first novel, The Sea Sisters, was released in 2013, I’ve now written two further novels, which have been published in more than a dozen countries, including America, Canada, Brazil, France, Holland, Germany and Norway. We caught up with her again to see where life has taken her over the last couple of years and to find out about her new book which will be based in Tasmania. Back in Issue 3 Lucy Clarke told us about her new book, The Sea Sisters, and her love for travel and how it inspires her writing.
