'Photojournalist Bart Zacharin's camera doesn't lie, but his mysterious new lover, Minnie Cuff, lies for a living. Love-struck Bart can't get that into focus until he follows her from Australia on her flimsily excused trip to Europe and becomes embroiled in an obscure web of international organised crime, deception and death' (publisher blurb).

'Freya and James Archer live the high life in a luxury home in Sydney's poshest suburb, with money, matching Jags, two beautiful teenage kids ... and they couldn't be more despondent. James wakes weeping each morning, dreading the pressures of a long and grueling work day ahead, and Freya is struggling with her foundering real estate career. Global recession is biting in Australia, and the Archers are afraid. In a desperate bid for happiness and security they shed the fragile trappings of success and cruise over into the slow lane to take an unmapped turn-off on a country road and live off the land in a remote old farmhouse on the peaceful southern island of Tasmania. But is this an end to their old misery or the beginning of an even greater one?'

1 y separately published work icon According to Luke Rosanne Dingli , Langley : BeWrite Books , 2011 Z1844673 2011 single work novel historical fiction thriller mystery romance

According to Luke is a thrilling romantic novel of secrecy, symbols, faith, and forbidden love. It takes the reader on a quest for an ancient truth so powerful it disturbs the Catholic Church: a truth so explosive it attracts violent separatists and demands a ransom of millions. Follow a chase that charges from Venice to Malta, and then to Ravenna: a chase that escalates to disaster in Damascus, until a solution is found in the Victorian countryside in Australia (author's website).

According to Luke features the secondary character Prof Bryn Awbrey, an expert in semiotics. He later appears in Dingli's 2013 novel The Hidden Auditorium ('Rosanne Dingli, The Hidden Auditorium And Why Writing Never Ends,' interview with Nick Wales 2013).

1 1 y separately published work icon Death in Malta Rosanne Dingli , San Jose : Writers Club , 2000 Z1007318 2000 single work novel mystery crime

'Novelist Gregory Worthington flees to Malta, where he hopes to find sanctuary from his crumbling marriage and inspiration for his next novel. The inspiration arrives upon hearing of the village mystery of a missing child. This becomes the subject of his writing, but his investigations are fraught with difficulty. His romance with a local woman can either restore or ruin his career, but who is the unexpected female visitor? The village parish priest shows veiled antagonism towards him, which is countered by a friendship struck with a mysterious doctor. "Life is not a novel, Mr Worthington, in which everything is resolved by the last twenty pages," says the parish priest. But there are questions that must be answered, and Worthington determines to find the solutions before he leaves Malta.'

1 y separately published work icon Last Birds Andrew Thelander , Wigan : BeWrite Books , 2009 Z1659470 2009 single work novel humour

'Feathers fly when a penniless wildlife artist accidentally traps the world's last living Paradise Parrot in the ramshackle ghost town he shares with his enigmatic pet wallaby and a mysterious Indian barrister. It seems everyone has a claim on the soon-famous bird, and the reclusive and unworldly young painter finds himself up against government bureaucrats, animal protection officials, police, the courts, the gutter press, and an eccentric multi-millionaire birdwatcher with madcap plans of his own. Nothing else for it but to take flight into the great Australian bush where the artist, his brilliant and beautiful, newly discovered zoologist sister, a pompous university professor and an obsessed taxidermist lose their inhibitions, their clothes - and in some cases their minds - living with, and learning to think as, wild kangaroos. In his and her own way, every key character in Andrew Thelander's hilarious, sometimes touching, often profoundly wise, tale is a Last Bird ... an utterly unique, wildly exotic example of an endangered species' (publisher website).

1 y separately published work icon Chasing the King : The Cult Classic Lyn Meads Wilson , South Australia : Jacobyte Books , 2000 Z1256968 2000 single work novel fantasy 'Mark Templer, novelist and musician, eagerly accepts the commission to write a biography of Arthur Pelham, the world's greatest rock guitarist, recently killed in a motorcycle accident. Arthur was Mark's hero, but as Arthur's closest friend tells his story, Mark discovers other links, other identities. Fantasy? Hallucination? The dual or triple truth about an old secret? Layer by layer the past unfolds, then unfolds again, revealing a haunting mystery and a search for undying passion. Without false romanticism or the stereotypes of "Arthurian" or time-travel fantasy, Roxanna Ryder has created a unique fusion of history and fantasy, ancient and modern.' - from Google Books
