The Good Woman's Guide with Liz Foster

Join debut author Liz Foster in conversation with Jen Galland as she discusses her contemporary fiction The Good Woman's Guide to Making Better Choices.

Like thousands of Australians, Liz became fascinated with the spiraling tale of woe of financial fraudster Melissa Caddick and the vipers nest of lies she created for family and friends. It made Liz think how easy it all was. How she got away with it for years, and probably still could have if she’d skipped town before the police caught up with her.

Taking inspiration from beautiful Beechworth, Victoria, which has a couple of ‘white-collar’ prisons, this tale spans the glitzy highs of Bondi to a goat farm in Beechworth. It centres around choices - those we make, and those we find it easier not to make, with a lightness and laugh out loud moments.

A warm, funny and outrageously unfair novel about infidelity, financial fraud and goat's cheese, and the possibility of starting your life all over again when everything goes south of the border.

Books will be available for purchase and signing on the night.
