Eileen Ormsby

Eileen Ormsby is a lawyer, author, and freelance journalist based in Melbourne. Her first book, Silk Road, was the world's first in-depth expose of the black markets that operate on the dark web. Eileen's gonzo-style investigations have led her deep into the secretive corners of the dark web where drugs and weapons dealers, hackers, hitmen, and worse ply their trade. Many of these dark web interactions turned into real-world relationships, entanglements, hack attempts on her computer and even death threats from the dark web's most successful hitman network as she researched Darkest Web. She now lives a quiet life off-grid as much as possible.
