- In our brand-new episode of Crime Club, Victoria Carthew sits down with Joanna Jenkins to discuss her brand-new thriller "Bad Neighbours".
In this story, Ruth Dawson finds her perfect living space in an art deco building in Potts Point, The Lumen. It's perfect until Ben, the homeless guy, dies under the corrugated iron lean-to in the garden where he lived. The residents of The Lumen do little to hide their relief.
They can cease their half-hearted attempts to find an acceptable solution to what they called 'the Ben problem', and return to more important issues: whether Lucas in the basement flat can keep his dog, Mavis; how it is that Lucas can afford to live there; and how it is that the banker who owns the whole of the top floor spent the owner's corporation funds to restore the glass-domed roof, but took for himself the light from the sun and the stars
They're not happy when Ruth Dawson brings Detective Sharon Messer in. Ben was poisoned. And one of the residents was involved.

Christmas Eve, 1974.
As Cyclone Tracy tears through Darwin, four girls disappear into the heart of the outback. No tracks. No bodies. No answers.
Decades later, one returns.
She claims to be one of the missing. But is she? There is no proof of who she is, only a keepsake that once belonged to another missing woman - Sally, a teen mother whose disappearance never mattered to anyone but Von, the daughter she left behind. Sally's return rekindles the cold case, as desperate families plead for answers - and a dark mystery begins to surface.
A hidden bunker ... a ghost ... scratches on a concrete wall ... pictures inside a View-Master ... and the little girl who understood the darkness better than anyone.
Inspired by true events, Stay Buried is the darkly thrilling tale of secrets unearthed, the will to survive and a legend that refuses to die.

The annual Curlew Street scarecrow competition is back, and residents have never seen an entry like it. Shirt bloody, head and arms slumped over a scarecrow crucifix: Victoria’s most conservative Supreme Court Judge, Harry ‘The Pope’ Somerton, is dead.
Priyanka Pal, homicide detective, is disturbed when her investigation uncovers corruption close to home. While Emma Bloom seems to have it all together but her prickly, estranged sister, Margot, knows the truth. Their attempts at reconciliation spiral into crisis with the death of Emma’s abusive husband, The Pope. As secrets unravel and Priyanka’s investigation cuts close to home, the sisters risk losing what fragile family ties they have left, and Priyanka’s career is on the edge. None of them will ever feel the same way about themselves (or their neighbours) again.
