Join us at the Wonthaggi Library for a fascinating afternoon with Vikki Petraitis as she shares the gripping story behind her investigative journey.

Discover how she researched and crafted her bestselling book The Phillip Island Murder, and hear the powerful story behind her newest release, The Vanishing of Vivienne Cameron.

From uncovering hidden details to navigating the emotional complexities of real-life cases, Vikki will take you behind the scenes of true crime writing — revealing what it really takes to bring these haunting Australian stories to life. This event is perfect for True Crime and Crime Fiction lovers.

About the Author:

Vikki is one of Australia's most compelling true crime voices. Ever since Vikki was a small child, Vikki dreamed of being a writer. One of her favourite things is when people tell her how her books have changed their life or influenced their career choice. There’s more than one cop, forensic psychologist, podcaster, or investigator whose journey began with opening one of Vikki’s books. 'The Phillip Island Murder' is one of her most recognized titles, but only part of her extensive list of titles.
