Frock (or suit) up and join us for an à la carte dinner as we present Sisters in Crime’s annual Davitt Awards for the best crime books by Australian women published in 2020.
This year, our guest is Debra Oswald, award-winning playwright, screenwriter and novelist, who will discuss her life in crime with Tara Mitchell, Vice-President of Sisters in Crime, before presenting the awards.
An amazing 127 books are competing for the six categories: Best Adult Crime Novel, Best Children’s Crime Novel, Best Young Adult Crime Novel, Best True Crime Book, Best Debut Book (any category) and Readers’ Choice, as judged by members of Sisters in Crime. You can find the longlist on our website here.
