BIOGRAPHY

After decades in the hospitality industry and the best part of forty years since opening the Drunken Admiral Seafood Restaurant Craig hung up the apron to leave family at the helm and indulge in his other passion, writing fiction.
Craig is currently writing the seventh book in a series called Shadow Hunter involving Caspian Hunter who travels to Van Diemen’s Land in 1855 from Birmingham to take position as second in charge of Hobart Town’s fledgling police department. His adventures around the waterfront inns are boundless.
Another contemporary series, with number five recently completed, involves the chef of a Hobart waterfront restaurant called the Hook, Line and Sinker. Along with his partner, assistant curator at the Tasmanian Museum, they find themselves in continuous trouble whether it be solving the disappearance of rare art works on Tasmania’s west coast, caught in hand glider dog fights over the Caribbean Sea, lost in the myriad of tunnels under the battlefields of Flanders or imprisoned by antiquity thieves in Venice.
Other action adventure novels are either set in 1830s Van Diemen’s Land, 1940s Tasmanian wilderness and a murder investigation set in Sydney and Darwin in 1974.
Craig was born in Hobart in 1952 and travelled extensively giving him the experiences and escapades he so enjoys putting into print. This includes working as a chef for a restaurant owned by Sydney underbelly figures in the early 70s and cooking in Darwin when cyclone Tracy destroyed the city. Life has been busy and interesting to say the least.
In the 90s Craig independently shot two feature films, a murder mystery set in Southern Tasmania which aired on television and a splatter comedy still available online. He wrote, produced and directed both.
Having led a ‘normal’ life of work and duty Craig Godfrey decided to follow his real passion of writing fiction. And with Tasmania’s fascinating past he has plenty to write about.
Using Tasmania’s history as a blank canvas Craig loves nothing more than to weave adventure, mystery and mayhem involving colourful characters from all walks of life. He has published 22 previous titles.
