Driven by a deep love of wildlife and the natural world, Lara is crafting a series of novels in which animals are more than characters; they are individuals holding value, meaning, symbolism, and power. These works of mystery and adventure explore the complex bonds between humans and the creatures they share the world with.

​

The first book in the series, Where She Met The Sea, is set in historic Australia and centres on the charismatic orca. The second, There Came A Running Fire, takes readers to a new wild land, but which animal holds the heart of the story?

​

There Came A Running Fire is currently in editing and is scheduled for release in 2027.
