Join us for an entertaining afternoon with multi-talented artist Dave Warner as he discusses his latest Dan Clement novel, When in Rains, music and writing with Elizabeth Lewis.

Once described by Bob Dylan as his favourite Australian songwriter, Bicton boy Dave Warner is a musician and writer. We are delighted to host this event while is he back in Perth for a very short time.

When it Rains is the fourth book in the Dan Clement series and Dave's thirteenth crime novel. He is the multi-award-winning author of Before it Breaks and City of Light. Dave has also published a number of non-fiction books on music and sport.

Books will be available for purchase on the day courtesy of Dymocks Midland Gate. Dave will sign books, as well as other things people may bring such as CDs, LPs and his other books. There will be a selection of CDs and books available which are usually only available for purchase on his website.

Bookings are essential via Eventbrite. Light refreshments will be available. We suggest you bring your own keep-cup or mug for tea, coffee or water. Please let us know if you have any accessibility requirements.

About When it Rains: Broome detective Dan Clement has his hands full. He heads a small team in Australia’s north-west, policing a landmass larger than Western Europe and, right now, there’s a deluge of crime. His sergeant is beaten up, a woman is viciously assaulted, a hand tied to a post is all that is left in crocodile-infested waters.

The crimes seem to be related — until Clement looks again at another tourist death-by-crocodile eight years earlier. And with a free-spirited new lover claiming his attention, his private life isn’t a simple matter either. The stakes keep rising with the flood waters, reminding Clement of the adage ‘It never rains but it pours’. With a killer out there — somewhere — the time has arrived for Dan Clement to sink or swim.
