St Hilda's College Crime Fiction Weekend - Detecting the Gothic
Friday, August 8, 2025 -- Sunday, August 10, 2025, 0900 - 1700
From The Woman in White and The Murders in the Rue Morgue to the most modern of monsters and their makers, a fascination with the Gothic has always lent colour to crime fiction.
As the summer sizzles, let the shadows creep in at our 32nd Crime Fiction Weekend where a dark gathering of glittering stars will do their best to send shivers down your spine.
