Talking Aussie Books with Dervla McTiernan

The last time I interviewed award-winning, international bestselling author Dervla McTiernan was in February 2024. Back then we were chatting about Dervla’s new release ‘What Happened to Nina’ which of course went on to win the General Fiction Book of the Year at the 2025 Australian Book Industry Awards. And that same book is now currently in development for a screen adaptation - which is super exciting news for all of us who devoured that book. But this year, Dervla has a brand new stand alone book: 'Three Reasons for Revenge'. It’s not only Dervla’s 7th full-length novel - but the first to be set in Australia and introduces us to a cast of new characters - including a gritty, determined new female detective. Published by HarperCollins Australia in late April , 'Three Reasons for Revenge' is an intense, fast-paced, high-stakes novel about three people who each receive a mystery package designed to tear their life apart. https://geni.us/ThreeReasons4R To sign up to Dervla's newsletter, see: https://dervlamctiernan.com/newsletter/
