Joanna Jenkins grew up on a small farm in country Queensland. After graduating from the University of Queensland in the late eighties with degrees in English Literature and Law, she practised as a solicitor in Big Law, including for many years as a partner of an international law firm. In one firm she worked at, Joanna was the first person to work part-time after having a baby, and in another was, for a couple of years, the only female partner of the Brisbane office. She now writes full-time. Married with three sons, Joanna lives in Brisbane. How to Kill a Client is her first novel.
