I missed the first letter in this thread so not sure if you're looking for Australian HB writers or all Australian mystery writers. Jon Cleary won the Edgar in 1975, then evidently vanished from the face of the earth, perhaps because he lives in and writes of Australia. He's still writing. Morrow publishes him in the U.S. His recent series character Scobie Malone is on a par with Ruth Rendell's Inspector Wexford, determined cop and amiable observer of social change, and his books are riddled with moral ambiguity as well as Aussie atmospherics and social-ethnic politics.
