Jane Caro Author Talk

We are thrilled to welcome award-winning Australian columnist, author, feminist, activist, and social commentator, Jane Caro. Lyrebird, a cold case thriller, follows a university professor and a detective as they try to solve a 20 year old murder. Central to the investigation is the premise that the sounds an ornithology student filmed a lyrebird making were actually the mimicked screams of a murdered woman.

Includes drinks, nibbles, book sales and author signing.

TICKETS WILL OPEN FOR BOOKING ON 16 APRIL.
