Orna O’Reilly is a former interior designer from Ireland. She moved to Italy in 2013, began an award- winning blog, Orna O’Reilly: Travelling Italy, and lived in the Veneto region of northern Italy close to Venice, from where she drew inspiration for her first work of fiction, The Blonde in the Gondola. Her second book, In the Shadow of the Olive Tree, was set in Puglia in south eastern Italy, where Orna lived among the olive groves with her husband, Tom, for almost seven years. They have now returned to live permanently in the Veneto. Her soon to be released latest book, Dark Harvest, is set between both regions of Italy with which she has become deeply familiar. Orna has been a contributing writer for various travel and design magazines for several years. Previously, Orna spent almost thirty years as a hands-on interior designer in South Africa, Mozambique and laterally Ireland. A fully qualified designer, in 2000 she returned to her home country and began a busy practice on the west coast, leaving to move to Italy in 2013. Orna's goal was to write fiction, but first she was keen to share her wide experience as an interior designer, with her first book, "Renovate and Redecorate without Breaking a Nail" published in 2014, followed by her three works of fiction set in Italy.
