Book Club: I’ll be interviewing Peter Doyle about his non-fiction book Suburban Noir, which is a cracking portrait of crime and punishment in Sydney in the 1950s and 1960s.

We’ll also be talking about Peter’s other books, the non-fiction Crooks Like Us and City Of Shadows, and his four period crime novels, The Devil’s Jump, Amaze Your Friends, Get Rich Quick and The Big Whatever.

There’s plenty to talk about – and Peter would love to hear your questions about his work.

If you want me to read them to him, send them as an email to ForgottenAustraliapodcast@gmail.com
