Bendigo Writers Festival — What’s New in Crime?

Robert Gott joins Gianrico Carofiglio, Maryrose Cuskelly, and Sulari Gentill with chair Andrew Nette at the Bendigo Writers Festival this August.

Tough crime, psychological thrillers, true crime, devious procedurals, detective series.

Robert Gott was born in the small Queensland town of Maryborough in 1957, and lives in Melbourne. He has published many books for children, and is also the creator of the newspaper cartoon The Adventures of Naked Man. He is the author of The Holiday Murders, The Port Fairy Murders, and The Autumn Murders, and of the William Power series of crime-caper novels set in 1940s Australia: Good Murder, A Thing of Blood, Amongst the Dead, and The Serpent’s Sting.
