Get ready for a fascinating dive into history, mystery, and a trailblazing woman who changed the rules. Join best-selling author Lainie Anderson in conversation with Sue from Gawler Libraries as they chat about Lainie’s PhD research into legendary policewoman Kate Cocks—and how it inspired her gripping murder-mystery series.Back in 1915, Moonta-born Kate Cocks made history as the first policewoman in the British Empire with the same pay and powers as the blokes. She led the groundbreaking Women’s Police Branch for 20 years—and now she’s the inspiration behind Lainie’s fierce fictional heroine in The Death of Dora Black and the upcoming Murder on North Terrace (out 30 September!).Expect stories of guts, grit, and gumption—plus a sneak peek into the world of the Petticoat Police Mysteries. Don’t miss this fun, insightful, and slightly deadly evening!
