Join us at Nowra Library for an exciting morning with Australian thriller author, Margaret Hickey, as she discusses her newest book 'An Ill Wind'.
In the small Victorian town of Carrabeen, a massive wind farm divides the community. Amidst the spinning turbines, one stands still – with a body hanging from its blade.
Detective Sergeants Belinda Burney and Will Lovell find the victim is Geordie Pritchard, a wealthy philanthropist and wind farm owner. While suicide seems plausible, Geordie's widow, Lucinda, claims murder, backed by death threats.
The wind farm has torn the town apart, with some welcoming its benefits and others lamenting the loss of farmland. Geordie was both revered and reviled, but who hated him enough to kill?
Margaret Hickey, award-winning author from North East Victoria, explores rural lives in her works. Her novel Cutters End won the BAD Crime Sydney Festival’s Danger Prize and was shortlisted for the Ned Kelly Award.
Dymocks will be offering copies of Margaret’s book for sale.
