Reflecting on a year of phenomenal guests, we are bringing you a selection of the Best Conversations of 2024.
Candice Fox is one of the world's most successful crime writers, but she when she is not at her writing desk, you can find her rushing around Sydney rescuing stranded and injured wallabies, cockatoos, lizards, frogs and ducks.
Listen to Richard's first Conversation with Candice Fox here.
Candice Fox is one of the world's most successful crime writers.
Her latest work is about a female agent who goes undercover in a rogue firefighting crew in New York City.
To research the book Candice travelled to New York to meet up with firefighters and find out more about the real people working in firehouses.
While Candice is a prolific writer and a mum, she's not someone who believes in downtime.
When she's off duty from her writing desk, she straps on a tiny torch and a tool belt, and hurtles around Sydney rescuing stranded and injured wallabies, cockatoos, lizards, frogs and ducks, often with her small daughter Violet as her sidekick.
Candice has also recently taken up oil painting, inspired by some of her charges from her work in animal rescue.
