MICHAEL ROBOTHAM AUTHOR TALK & SIGNING / Whileaway Bookshop from 11am

Crime writing sensation Michael Robotham talks about his new standalone novel, Lying Beside You.

Twenty years ago, Cyrus Haven’s family was murdered. Only he and his brother survived. Cyrus because he hid. Elias because he was the killer. Now Elias is being released from a secure psychiatric hospital and Cyrus, a forensic psychologist, must decide if he can forgive the man who destroyed his childhood.

Australian author Robotham, who has sold more than six million copies of his thrillers, delivers again with a tale that ratchets up the tension and refuses to be put down.

This event is free to attend but bookings are essential

What is the weather doing?

A high [1025 hPa] in the Tasman Sea extends a ridge over the northern waters. The ridge will weaken slightly as the high moves east over the next few days. A new high will linger over southern Australia from Sunday, maintaining the ridge.
