The Death of Dora Black (A Pettticoat Police Mystery)Summer, Adelaide, 1917. The impeccably dressed Miss Kate Cocks might look more like a schoolmistress than a policewoman, but don't let that fool you. She's a household name, wrangling wayward husbands into repentance, seeing through deceptive clairvoyants, and rescuing young women (whether they like it or not) with the help of a five-foot cane and her sassy junior constable, Ethel Bromley.When shop assistant Dora Black is found dead on a city beach, Miss Cocks and Ethel are ordered to stay out of the investigation and leave it to the men. But when Dora's workmate goes missing soon after, the women suspect something sinister, and determine to take matters into their own hands. After all, who knows Adelaide better than the indomitable Miss Cocks?https://www.qbd.com.au/the-death-of-dora-black-a-petticoat-police-mystery/lainie-anderson/9780733652066/ This is a free but ticketed event.You can receive personalisation for your copy of The Death of Dora Black and take a photo with Lainie Anderson.
