The Shooting at Cape St George: An Epilogue – Kate Mildenhall in conversation with Dr Rose Searby

An evening with Author Kate Mildenhall & Dr Rose Searby

After visiting Greenpatch camping ground in 2014, Kate Mildenhall became fascinated with the story of the shooting at Cape St George in 1887 and went on to write her debut novel – Skylarking – based on those events. Ten years on, Kate returns to the region to discuss Kate and Harriet’s story, the real-life epilogue she found and the enduring impact of the book on readers. With Dr Rose Searby.

A brave, beautiful and richly textured book that delicately explores the fault lines in love and friendship – Lucy Treloar
