Join three authors for a fascinating insight into their worlds at a famous and exclusive Melbourne venue, the Albert Park Yachting and Anglers Club, known to crims and coppers who frequent it as The Fisho’s Club.
Adam Shand is one of Australia’s best-known true crime authors, covering the underworld for local and international audiences. Tim Watson-Munro is a distinguished criminal psychologist, and Captain James Nixon is a former Airbus A380 Captain, turned storyteller, who now investigates air disasters.
This unforgettable summer evening by the beach will start with finger food and drinks on the deck, then the interview-style show. This will be followed by a meet and greet with the speakers. You’ll be able to buy their books too.
