Tom and Meg will discuss their latest work: The Unmourned – Book Two of The Monsarrat Series. This thrilling series interweaves historical fact with their original brand of fast-paced, witty crime fiction, bringing Australia’s colourful convict history to life.

When the much despised Superintendent of the Factory, Robert Church, is brutally murdered, there is a factory full of women who might have cause to want him dead. Finding the perpetrator will be no easy task for our recently arrived protagonist, ticket-of-leave gentleman convict Hugh Monsarrat. Through his ever-loyal housekeeper and unofficial sidekick, Mrs. Mulrooney, Monsarrat gains access to the inner workings of the Female Factory and with it, a chance to uncover the truth behind Church’s murder. Not all murder victims are mourned, but the perpetrator must always be punished in The Unmourned - Book Two in The Monsarrat Series.
