EXTRA: BAD: Sydney Crime Writers Festival - Justice

We take a visit to the floor of BAD: Sydney Crime Writers Festival (https://www.badsydney.com/) 2024, to talk all about the big themes, and the way that crime fiction is tied up with the world of Justice. The Crime Fiction community has amazing festivals all over the world, and here at Death of the Reader we're lucky enough to have BAD in our own backyard. This week, the pressing issues that inspire our crime fiction. From accounts of under-resourced courts in the Australian Outback with Jamelle Wells, to fiction grappling with the horrors of a mind that can't trust itself with Susannah Glenn and Zahid Gamieldien.


Thank you to BAD: Sydney for tickets to the event, and the many publishers, who whether or not they provided review copies (we didn't keep track, sorry), it is in their graces we can conduct these interviews.
