Events › An Evening in Crime: Dervla McTiernan (Ireland) and Michael Bennett: WORD Christchurch

While bestselling and award-winning Irish crime writer and former lawyer Dervla McTiernan is now based in Australia, her books are still set in her native Ireland. Her much-anticipated new novel in the Cormac Reilly series, The Unquiet Grave is a white-knuckle thriller set in Galway. Michael Bennett’s (Ngāti Pikiao, Ngāti Whakaue) Carved in Blood is a gritty crime novel which sees the return of tenacious Māori investigator Hana Westerman from his award-winning Better the Blood. McTiernan and Bennett not only write strong and compelling lead characters, their books brim with a powerful sense of place and culture. They come together with Liz Grant to discuss their work.
