Great Conversations features interviews with authors and writers, exploring books, writing and literary culture from Australia and the world.

Today's episode features Garry Disher discussing his new rural noir Consolation.

Paul Hirschhausen is the only cop in the poorly heated police station in Tiverton. He was run out of Adelaide when he turned whistle-blower on corruption. But the town has come to know him, he’s setting down roots. But then there’s always an edge when police are around.

Now Hirsch has got a father & son on the run, armed and dangerous. The local music festival looks like it’s going belly up and someone is sneaking around stealing women’s underwear in the night.

Join me as we discover Garry Disher’s Consolation...
