Love Aussie crime novels? Well, what about 'quirky crime'?

This is how publishers are describing Nicole Crowe's debut novel 'The Washup' (Pantera Press).

A book set on idyllic Magnetic Island in Far North Queensland, 'The Washup' is a wonderfully entertaining mix of mystery and suspense delivered with dark humour - which follows Eve and her return to her childhood home on the Island in the wake of her parents' death two years earlier.

When a sky-dive goes wrong, Eve is compelled to find out if this was a tragic accident or well-planned crime, putting her life at risk to uncover the truth.

I loved listening to this chat with Nicole, ably facilitated by the wonderful Cassie Hamer.

Take a listen now!
