ONLINE TESTIMONIALS

Kathryn Bonella is an investigative journalist, former 60 Minutes producer, and bestselling author.

After studying journalism at RMIT in Melbourne, Kathryn moved to London for several years, freelancing for various UK and US newspapers, magazines and TV shows. She returned to Australia in 2000 as a producer for 60 Minutes - covering stories across the globe, including Schapelle Corby's arrest, which changed Kathryn's career. After producing two stories on Schapelle, Kathryn quit 60 Minutes to move to Bali and work with her to write Schapelle Corby - My Story. It went straight to No.1.

During the hundreds of hours spent inside Kerobokan Prison, Kathryn witnessed the jail's bizarre, dark world close up, inspiring a second book on the jail itself - Hotel Kerobokan. Snowing in Bali was a natural progression; Kathryn gained the trust of dealers, many of whom had read and liked Hotel Kerobokan for its accuracy and graphic account of the jail, and they agreed to talk to her for a new book.

All three books are now international bestsellers, and Kathryn has dubbed them her 'Bali trilogy'. Snowing in Bali and Hotel Kerobokan are regarded as authorities on the subject of drugs, crime and justice in Indonesia. Both books have regularly been used as references in media across the globe, including The Times, Daily Telegraph, CNN, South China Morning Post, Daily Mail, BBC, BBC Brazil, Jakarta Globe, and the Agence France-Presse.
