Death in Hilo by Eric Redman - Part One
from Death of the Reader Hosted by 2SER 107.3FM
We discuss Part One, Chapters 1-11 of Eric Redman's new Hawaiian Noir novel, Death in Hilo. Kawika Wong is in the prime of his career, leading the homicide squad at the Honolulu Police Department, but it all could come crumbling down when a criminal he put away a decade ago begins hinting towards the truth of a case Kawika thought he had put behind him. With a serial killer on the streets, and the bones of an old case peeking above the ground, Kawika's duties are torn. But he can't see everything we can... We also speak with Australian fantasy author Garth Nix about authority, suspense, and the lessons he's learned from crime fiction. Thank you to the University of Hawaii, Pineapple Tweed, and Crooked Lane for providing copies of 'Death in Hilo' and arranging for us to speak with Eric Redman. Thank you to Sydney Writers' Festival and Allen & Unwin for arranging our time with Garth Nix.
