Join us for an evening with best-selling writer Sally Hepworth who will discuss her new novel Mad Mabel. At 15 years of age, Mabel Waller became Australia’s youngest convicted murderer. When the police open a new investigation and the media descend on the now reclusive 81-year-old, Mabel decides it's time to set the record straight. They called it murder. She called it justice...
Hosted by Newcastle Writers Festival program manager Amy Lovat.
The venue bar will be open from 6.30pm.
There will be a book signing after the event concludes and books will be for sale thanks to MacLean's Booksellers.
This event is presented in partnership with The University of Newcastle and supported by Pan Macmillan.
