In 2003, while working in a large public hospital in Melbourne, Heather was introduced to an elderly gentleman who might just have a story worth telling. The day she met Lale Sokolov changed both their lives. Lales story formed the basis for The Tattooist of Auschwitz and the follow-up novel, Cilkas Journey. In 2021 she published the phenomenal conclusion to the Tattooist trilogy, Three Sisters, after being asked to tell the story of three Holocaust survivors who knew Lale from their time in Auschwitz-Birkenau. Together, her novels have sold more than 16 million copies worldwide. Her exceptional new novel, Sisters Under the Rising Sun, was published in 2023 bringing another heart-wrenching true story to life with experiences of women in Japanese POW camps, how they found bravery in sisterhood and the hope to survive in music.
