Chris Stuart, Jacqueline Bublitz, Nikki Crutchley and Fiona Sussman

Fiona Sussman

What makes Kiwi crime fiction from across the ditch different from Australian crime fiction? Is it the setting? But what if the book is not set in Aotearoa New Zealand but in New York? Is it where the author lives? But what if they live in Melbourne? Join award-winning Kiwi crime writers, Jacqueline Bublitz, Nikki Crutchley, Chris Stuart and Fiona Sussman in conversation with R.W.R. McDonald, discussing all things Aotearoa New Zealand crime fiction, what it means to be a Kiwi crime writer, and the current state of the market.
