Just finished #TheStolen by @VikkiPetraitis. Fantastic storytelling and a gripping crime plot with themes of toxic masculinity and gender inequality. Thought-provoking, enraging and incredibly compelling! Out 7 Sept in ANZ. Huge thanks to @AllenAndUnwin for the ARC.

Around 400 people came to our Saturday event with the anonymous Casefile host. Emily Webb and I got to share the stage with him and the audience was amazing. Here's an official photo. I had to swap him for a stick figure because 'Casey' is still anonymous.
