Author Andrea Carter will join Waterford City and County Librarian, Mary Conway, for the fifth Writers at Waterford Libraries event of 2025 in Lismore Library on June 18th at 3pm to discuss her latest book, There Came a Tapping and writing life.
Andrea Carter grew up in Ballyfin Co. Laois, studied law at Trinity College Dublin, and worked as a solicitor on the Inishowen Peninsula, County Donegal, where she ran the most northerly solicitor’s practice in the country. Having practised law for twenty years, more recently as a barrister, she now writes full time. Her first book, Death at Whitewater Church, a winner of the Irish Writers Centre Novel Fair, was followed by Treacherous Strand, The Well of Ice, Murder at Greysbridge, and The Body Falls. She has been the recipient of two Arts Council of Ireland Literature Bursary Awards and a Dublin City Council Bursary Award. Her short story The Lamb was shortlisted for the Irish Book Awards in 2019. The Inishowen Mysteries series is in development for television. Her first standalone thriller There Came a Tapping was published in March 2025.
