As a child, Candice knew her family wasn't what most people would consider normal. Their Christmas included lunch at Long Bay jail, where her father worked. At home, Candice's
mother Ocean was rescuing lost people, and injured native animals, and collecting things from the council cleanup. In one 5-year period, Ocean fostered more than 140 children. To escape,
Candice would immerse herself in her mother's collection of illustrated true crime stories. Then she began writing stories of her own, and went on to become one of the world's
best-selling crime authors. As well as winning numerous awards for her own novels, Candice collaborates with writer, James Patterson. FURTHER INFORMATION AND LISTENING _Crimson Lake_ is
