Val McMurray

Val McMurray was born in England. As a child, she loved to read and write stories. Since 1965, she has lived in Sydney, Australia. She worked as a trained nurse until retirement. Her husband passed away after a long illness and writing became her solace. She lives alone, but her children and their families live close by. She is a member of a writers group and a book club. Friends encouraged her and several short stories and articles were published. Whispering Shadows is her second book; the first, Halloween Fires, did not sell very well but those who did read it, enjoyed it.
