Join us in the Gossie Balcony Bar for drinks and nibbles as Michael Trant launches BLOOD AND GOLD, the exciting new rural thriller from the bestselling author of WILD DOGS and NO TRACE. Books sales and signings available throughout the night. This is a free event, please RSVP for catering. See you there! Someone is stalking gold hunters. Now a bushman is stalking them . . . Terry Drage is not the first amateur gold prospector to rock up to the Murchison Hotel, brag about an exciting discovery – and then vanish into thin air. But Gabe Ahern is determined he will be the last. No one knows the land around the remote Western Australian town of Cue better than Gabe – a wild dog trapper who's in his element in the bush. Feeling responsible for his friend’s fate, he races there to join the search. But it won’t be an easy ride. For a start the local cops seem sure Terry going missing is nothing more than a tragic accident. It’s down to Gabe to spot the sinister pattern of disappearances and deaths in recent years. Plus, the last time Gabe was in his old home town it was under the very worst of circumstances. And now, to stop a killer, he’ll need to confront the ghosts from his past . . . Praise for the Gabe Ahern series: 'Tough, fast and hard - my type of book.' Lee Child on Wild Dogs 'High octane, full throttle.' Herald Sun on Wild Dogs 'An absolute gem . . . An absorbing, exciting, page-turning thriller. I highly recommend.' Good Reading Magazine on No Trace Information Source: Michael Trant | eventbrite

Join us at Whitcoulls Albany for a FREE event to celebrate the release of Onyx Storm - the third book in Rebecca Yarros' Empyrean Series. Please arrive via the food court entrance to Westfield Albany Mall. Festivities will start from 10pm; you can expect face painting, refreshments, giveaways galore, competitions and more as we count down to Onyx Storm's release! About the book: Are you ready to brave the dark? After nearly eighteen months at Basgiath War College, Violet Sorrengail knows there's no more time for lessons. No more time for uncertainty. Because the battle has truly begun, and with enemies closing in from outside their walls and within their ranks, it's impossible to know who to trust. Now Violet must journey beyond the failing Aretian wards to seek allies from unfamiliar lands to stand with Navarre. The trip will test every bit of her wit, luck, and strength, but she will do anything to save what she loves - her dragons, her family, her home, and him. Even if it means keeping a secret so big, it could destroy everything. They need an army. They need power. They need magic. And they need the one thing only Violet can find - the truth. But a storm is coming... and not everyone can survive its wrath. Information Source: Hachette Aotearoa New Zealand & Whitcoulls | eventbrite
