SA Chapter: Rebecca Heath with Michelle Prak
March 11 @ 6:30 pm – 9:30 pm
Internationally published SA-based author Rebecca Heath will be in conversation with Michelle Prak about her latest book, The Last Encore, a sweltering, claustrophobic thriller in which a former band reunites for a one-night-only show broadcast from a private island . . . but not everyone is there to enjoy the music.
Rebecca Heath studied laser chemistry at university, worked in hospitality and teaching, and wrote obsessively whenever she could find the time. She wrote several young adult novels as Beck Nicholas, and was published in Australia and Germany before turning to a life of (writing) crime. The Last Encore is her fourth novel for adults, following The Summer Party, The Dinner Party, and The Wedding Party, all published in Australia, the UK, and the USA.
Michelle Prak is the author of the thrillers The Rush and Barren Cape. The Rush was voted into Better Reading’s annual Top 100 reads (2024) and longlisted in the Sisters of Crime Australia Davitt Awards. Also a short story writer, Michelle was runner-up in the Furphy Literary Award 2021.
