Debut thriller author Nina D. Campbell joins guest host Rae Cairns on the Writes4Women Convo Couch to chat about Nina's new release Daughters of Eve and all things writing. Rae has been both a guest and a previous guest host on Writes4Women. Her debut novel, The Good Mother is about a suburban soccer mum trying to protect her family from the terrifying secrets of her past. It was shortlisted for the 2021 Ned Kelly Awards as an independent publication and subsequently published by Harper Collins. Nina D. Campbell's debut release will take you to the edge and dare you to look down. It's about a city in fear, a killer searching for justice and a cop who gets too close to the truth.... When a high-profile murder lands literally at her feet, Detective Emilia Hart sees a chance to expand her caseload beyond the endless succession of domestic violence matters she is forced to investigate. But this is no simple investigation. Another body turns up, then another. Then more - a lot more. All men, all shot, with a similar MO. It's not until a manifesto taking credit for the crimes is published by a group calling themselves Daughters of Eve that Hart confirms a link between the victims: all of them had been perpetrators themselves. All had offended against women or children. Few had been charged with those crimes - and none convicted. As panic sets in and chaos rules the streets, the police draw ever closer to the Daughters of Eve, but the serial killer continues to elude them. Again, Hart sees something that everyone else has missed. And what that is, she cannot believe. Join Rae and Nina as they discuss being debut crime writers, writing process and the strange and wonderful world of 'authoring'.
