Please join us in meeting a dynamic, prolific writer, brave activist and brilliant thinker. 

Caroline de Costa was an obstetrician and gynaecologist who lived and worked in Cairns for many years. She has written many works of non-fiction on women’s health as well as crime novels Double Madness, Missing Pieces, Blood Sisters and Buried Secrets.

Double Madness was short-listed for the Davitt Awards of Sisters-in-Crime in 2016. Caroline has also won numerous Scarlet Stiletto awards. Her latest novel, The Rosemary, is a gripping story of friendship, loss, and secrets buried deep in time.
