A Bag of Cash, a Missing Boss, and a Whole Lot of Trouble.
Join us for an evening of gritty noir and sharp-witted crime as we celebrate the launch of Alex Dook’s highly anticipated new thriller, Nothing Personal.
Lola McKenzie never wanted to be a thief. She just wanted to pay off her father’s debts. But when she walks away with a bag of cash, and a mysterious USB drive, from her dodgy boss’s office, she accidentally plunges into a deadly game of cat and mouse. With the boss missing and both the cops and the crooks closing in, Lola has to figure out how to sell the drive to the highest bidder without losing her life in the process.
Alex will be joined in conversation by the master of WA noir, David Whish-Wilson. Together, they’ll dive into the dark heart of the Australian underworld, the craft of the "morally grey" protagonist, and why some mistakes are impossible to undo.
Don’t miss this chance to hear from two of the sharpest voices in contemporary Australian crime fiction.
Doors: 6.30pm
Conversation starts: 7.15pm
