About The Author

January Gilchrist

January Gilchrist is a Brisbane-based mystery author, single mum, and former performing arts professional. She holds a Bachelor of Creative Arts, majoring in Literature and Performing Arts, was longlisted for the 2019 Richell Prize, and her debut thriller, The Final Chapter, is inspired by her time at the Varuna Writers’ House. Balancing her time between writing, running a Pilates studio, and raising two sons, January draws on her varied life experiences to create authentic, nuanced characters. Fascinated by puzzles, especially the mysteries of human behaviour, January explores the stories we tell, the secrets we keep, and the truths we hide - even from ourselves.
