In conversation with Catherine Hunter and signing What’s Left Behind (McClelland & Stewart), the latest novel in the Joanne Kilbourn Shreve series. Co-presented by the Winnipeg International Writers Festival as part of our collaborative Spring Literary Series.

Gail Bowen’s first Joanne Kilbourn mystery, Deadly Appearances, was nominated for the W.H. Smith/Books in Canada Best First Novel Award, and A Colder Kind of Death won the Arthur Ellis Award for best crime novel; all 14 (and counting!) books in the series have been enthusiastically reviewed. In 2008, Reader’s Digest named Bowen Canada’s Best Mystery Novelist; in 2009, she received the Derrick Murdoch Award from the Crime Writers of Canada. Bowen has also written plays that have been produced across Canada and on CBC Radio. Now retired from teaching at the First Nations University, Bowen lives in Regina.

MP&SGCatherine Hunter is the author of several mysteries, including the popular set-in-Wolseley thriller The Dead of Midnight and the ghostly novella In the First Early Days of My Death. Her latest book, a departure from the mystery genre, is After Light (Signature Editions), a dramatic story of love, war, trauma, and redemption, spanning four generations.
