Elin de Ruyter

Elin de Ruyter is the author of MOTHER OF LIGHT, her debut novel. Born in Reykjavik, Iceland but raised in Australia, Elin has always had a fascination with her Icelandic ancestry, so much so that she moved back to Iceland in 2020 for two years to write Mother of Light. She loves delving into family history and has worked as a professional genealogist and writer, particularly for Icelandic Roots, where she specialises in the history of Icelandic midwives. She currently lives in Brisbane, Australia with her husband and four children. Visit her online at www.elinderuyter.com
