Brisbane Writers Festival hosts Denise Mina and Ceridwen Dovey talks with Paul Mazerolle about true crime writing.

Denise Mina (UK): The “trial of the century” in 1950’s Glasgow is over. Peter Manuel has been found guilty of a string of murders and is waiting to die by hanging. But every good crime story has a beginning.

Ceridwen Dovey: A novel of duplicity and counterplay about the obscure workings of guilt in the human psyche, the compulsion to create and control, and the dangerous morphing of desire into obsession.

Chair: Paul Mazerolle

Presented by Griffith University and Integrity 20
