TAF2020 Replay Saturday Session 1
12 pm
Panel Session: CSI: Tasmania
You will hear:
MC Catherine du Peloux Menagé
Panellists David Owen, Joanna Baker, Angela Meyer and L.J.M. Owen
Podcaster Barbie Robinson
Tasmania is a rich a source of inspiration for (fictional) foul deeds. The landscape and weather, in particular, seem to captivate writers from across the globe, including - at one time - Agatha Christie.
Join Angela Meyer in conversation with local crime and mystery authors Joanna Baker, David Owen and L.J.M. Owen to explore the moods offered by the insular land of city, country and mountain.
David’s Pufferfish series features Hobart-based Detective Inspector Franz Heineken investigating intriguing criminal activity across the state (and beyond).
Joanna’s The Slipping Place opens on Mount Wellington, the haunting slopes and sky lending an almost Gothic atmosphere to the novel.
L.J.’s latest novel The Great Divide, is set in the bone-chilling cold of a stark Tasmanian winter far from the comforts of big city life.
