Melbourne born author Geoffrey McGeachin always secretly wanted to be a writer but deftly avoided the issue by becoming a photographer. After decades living and working in Asia and the US he settled in Sydney to teach photography. One day he decided to knuckle down and see if he actually had a book in him. ‘Fat Fifty & Fucked!’ was the result, winning a national writing competition and getting him an agent and a publishing deal.
This first book was followed by three tongue-in-check spy novels featuring photographer/secret agent Alby Murdoch: D-E-D Dead, Sensitive New Age Spy, and Dead & Kicking.
The Charlie Berlin historical crime trilogy came next, with The Diggers Rest Hotel, Blackwattle Creek and St Kilda Blues. The series, set in 1949, 1959 and 1969, earned him the prestigious Ned Kelly Award for best Australian crime fiction in 2011 and 2013.
