Two women lie at the bottom of abandoned mine shafts in rural Victoria in the latest books by Kimberley Starr and Margaret Hickey (amazing but true). Vikki Petraitis explores a spate of sexual attacks on women in the small town of Deception Bay that meet with a wall of silence and inaction by the police

The authors will examine why and how women are too often shafted with Moraig Kisler, Sisters in Crime’s review editor.

But Lucy isn’t interested in being a politician’s wife – and plans to leave, once Justin has won the election. A week before polling day Lucy takes the family dog for a walk and doesn’t return. Justin is convinced Lucy has left him and is angry that she would abandon him so close to the election. Yet her eleven-year-old daughter Gabby is certain her mother is missing and in trouble. Why isn't her father looking?

Tickets not sold prior to the event will be available at the door for $22/$18/$15/$10. Men or ‘brothers-in-law’ welcome.
