Author's Talk with Jane Sullivan

You are invited to spend an early evening with Jane Sullivan, writer, reviewer and journalist for The Age. Jane will give us insights into the craft of crime writing, as well as revealing some of the sordid secrets of 19th century Melbourne that are described in her new novel, "Murder in Punch Lane".

"Murder in Punch Lane" is set in Melbourne in 1868, and was inspired by real events and real people - When dazzling theatre star Marie St Denis dies in the arms of her best friend, fellow actress Lola Sanchez, everyone believes it was suicide by laudanum overdose. Everyone, except Lola.

Jane has worked at The Melbourne Age as a reporter, feature writer and editor since 1979. She won the inaugural Australian Human Rights Award for journalism. She is the author of three novels - "Little People", "The White Star" and "Murder in Punch Lane". For more info, see her website https://janesullivan.au

Admission includes a complimentary glass of wine and nibbles.
