Author Information

Carmel McMurdo Audsley is an Australian Journalist and Author who lives in Brisbane with her husband Iain. Carmel's first three books were historical fiction novels based on her family's history in Scotland. She received glowing reviews from readers who were moved by the stories of people in the south-west of Scotland. The books spanned from the mid-1600s to 2012 and painted a vivid picture of life on the land, the transition to working in the coal mines, young men heading off to war in two world conflicts, the Great Depression and life in Australia in the 1950s. Her fourth novel, The Undertaker, proved popular and readers asked for a sequel. The Undertaker: Masquerade was published in 2017 and a third instalment in the series is planned. Carmel has written thousands of news stories and features articles for magazines and newspapers, and now spends her time researching and writing historical fiction.
