She has degrees in English and Law from Melbourne University and was admitted to the legal profession on the 1st April 1982, a day which she finds both soothing and significant. Kerry has written three series, a number of plays, including The Troubadours with Stephen D'Arcy, is an award-winning children's writer and has edited and contributed to several anthologies. The Phryne Fisher series (pronounced Fry-knee, to rhyme with briny) began in 1989 with Cocaine Blues which was a great success. Kerry has written twenty books in this series with no sign yet of Miss Fisher hanging up her pearl-handled pistol. Kerry says that as long as people want to read them, she can keep writing them. In 2003 Kerry won the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Australian Association.","brand":"Poisoned Pen Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50626163245330,"sku":"9781728250991","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_7d4e80eb-4dd8-443b-b1d4-c3215acab392.jpg?v=1732650499","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/the-lady-with-the-gun-asks-the-questions-the-ultimate-miss-phryne-fisher-story-collection-9781728250991","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
