Monster Hunters by Hayley Young, 2022 winner Scarlet Stiletto Award and Great Film Idea Award

The outback of Australia can hold many mysteries and secrets. And its vastness can cover a criminal’s tracks and a family’s hidden past...Hayley Young lives in Canberra with her family and enjoys writing across multiple genres. In 2021, she was at work (sneaking a snack) when she returned a missed call to learn she had won the 28th Sisters in Crime Scarlet Stiletto Award and Scriptworks Award for a Great Film Idea. Winning inspired further dedication to her love of writing, and in 2022 her success was followed by second place as well as Best Thriller in the 29th Scarlet Stiletto Awards. She was also the winner of the inaugural ACWA Louie Award 2022, and Audio Arcadia and MNC Writers’ Centre short story competitions in 2021. She has been published in multiple Australian and international works, including four anthologies by Stringybark Publishing, and two shortlisted entries in the Hammond House International Literary Competition (UK). She is currently working on three novels.CreditsConcept designer, co-producer and narrator: Susanna LobezCo-producer: Carmel ShuteAnnouncer: Leigh RedheadProduction Manager: Tim CoyGraphic Designer: Caz BrownMusic: sampled & inspired by ProkofievCopyright Sisters in Crime Australia 2023
