About this Event
Crime fiction authors Candice Fox, Catherine Jinks and Hayley Scrivenor talk all things criminal with panel moderator Lisa Finn Powell. We ask the question, what kind of creative mind delves so deeply into the darkness?
About Candice Fox
Candice Fox is the author of eleven crime novels and the winner of three prestigious Ned Kelly Awards. She has also co-written seven New York Times bestsellers with James Patterson, the world’s bestselling thriller writer.
A meticulous researcher, Candice has interviewed a serial killer on Death Row, been to Pr*son three times (for work purposes) and while on honeymoon in the US took a road trip to famous crime scenes looking for clues. She has also dined with a former President of the United States, filmed a cameo role in her latest screen adaptation and, as a volunteer for WIRES, has rescued countless wild animals.
About Catherine Jinks
Catherine Jinks’ books for adults, young adults and children have been published in a dozen countries and have won numerous awards, including a Victorian Premier’s Literary Award and the CBCA Book of the Year Award (four times). She lives in the Blue Mountains.
Catherine's most recent title Traced is a powerful examination of domestic abusive and coercive control.
About Hayley Scrivenor
Hayley Scrivenor is the author of Girl Falling and Dirt Town. Girl Falling, was released in Australia in August of 2024 and described by Nine Newspapers as “a remarkable exercise in complex storytelling written in Scrivenor’s idiosyncratic, metaphorically vivid prose” and a “worthy follow-up to the best-selling Dirt Town.”
Dirt Town has been shortlisted for multiple national and international awards and translated into several languages.
This panel will be moderated by Lisa Finn Powell, writer, presenter, producer, publicist, musician and TedX speaker.
