CRIME CLUB: “The Grapevine” by Kate Kemp

Join host Victoria Carthew as she speaks with systemic psychotherapist turned author, Kate Kemp, about her debut crime fiction novel, “The Grapevine”

It’s the height of summer in Australia 1979, and on a quiet suburban cul-de-sac in Canberra a housewife is scrubbing the yellow and white chequered tiles of the bathroom floor. But all is not as it seems. For one thing, it’s 3am. For another, she is trying desperately to remove all traces of blood before they stain. Her husband seems remarkably calm, considering he has just murdered their neighbour. As the sun rises on Warrah Place, news of Antonio Marietti’s death spreads like wildfire. Gossip is exchanged in whispers and suspicion mounts. Twelve-year-old Tammy launches her own determined investigation, but she Is not the only one whose well-meaning efforts uncover more mysteries than they solve. There are secrets behind every closed door in the neighbourhood, and the identity of the murderer is only one of them.
