We were thrilled to be joined by award-winning author Dinuka McKenzie ahead of her multiple appearances at this year’s Sydney Writers festival.

In this conversation we talk about her latest addition to the Detective Kate Miles crime novel series, Tipping Point. Dinuka is an esteemed author, who won the 2020 HarperCollins Australia Banjo Prize for her very first novel The Torrent.

We are excited to share with you this fun conversation with Dinuka, we dive into the characters, writing inspiration and also chat about the upcoming Sydney Writers Festival.

SMSA members can borrow Tipping Point from our library on level 2. This book is also for sale at your local bookstore, here is a link to our friends at Abbeys Book Shop.

We hope you enjoy watching the discussion, please find additional links and information covered in the conversation below.
