About the Author

Carole Foot has been obsessed with imagining other worlds and realities since before she could read and write. She firmly believes that life is too short to be held back by convention and that anything is possible. Her vivid imagination and capacity to invent extraordinary people, things and places is finally captured in these epic tales.
Carole comes from a modest childhood in Australia. She excelled in a career in critical care medicine before deciding to take the plunge and pursue her passion for writing. She hopes her stories will be sources of entertainment, joy and instil hope that good will always conquer evil.

Liz Hickson knew as a small child that the secret to a happy fulfilled life was one that comprised lots of travel to faraway lands and many dogs. It is no surprise that she now finds herself the author of fiction books inspired by her many real travel adventures and the Chocolate Labradors who continue to be a constant source of joy and reliability. Liz has always sought to be her best version, constantly striving for happiness and meaning, in at times, a difficult life journey. From her childhood in The United Kingdom, to a high-powered career in clinical medicine that took her to Australia, she is now in a chapter where health, authenticity and her own dreams, have resulted in stories that explore true friendship, other realms and the nature of darkness.

Her writing partnership with Carole Foot began when they were still practicing doctors. Their transition into fiction writing is an exciting new chapter.
