2025 has been the Year of THE WHITE CROW. Thanks to my wonderful readers for making it so amazing. Xmas is coming. You know what to put under the tree. Gotta love books.
Week One in Germany and Die weiße Krähe (THE WHITE CROW) has gone straight in at #2 on the Spiegel List. That pesky Richard Osmond and his geriatric amateur sleuths have held me at bay. There may have to be a murder before next week's list.
Another brilliant crowd at Ocean Grove. And great to share the stage with Mark Brandi, award winning author of EDEN. This tired little WHITE CROW is flying home. I have a new book to edit.
It's almost here! Byron Writers Festival '25 features more than 160 extraordinary writers on Bundjalung Country this 8-10 August. Explore the program and plan your visit >> byronwritersfestival.com/festival
Day 2 in Perth. Bookshops, radio interviews and a great crowd at Mindarie. THE WHITE CROWis still the fiction #1 in Australia. Thank you to all of my wonderful readers (ie. sick puppies).
Well that was seriously fun. Great crowd. Great crack. And the best Irish interviewer since Wogan. Thank you Dervla McTiernan for making it a special night in Perth. #TheWhiteCrow
THE WHITE CROW is soaring. Huge thanks to all those sick puppies (ie wonderful readers) who put the wind beneath my wings. 🥳🎉
The White Crow tour continues in Canberra. Thank you Chris Hammer for sharing the stage. Dinner afterwards with Michael Brissenden. What is the collective noun for ex-journos? A joint byline.
THE WHITE CROW is out today (July 1) in the US and Canada. “A stunning crime novel.” Booklist. “End to end excitement for crime fans.” Kirkus Review. “Another standout thriller from Robotham.” US Library Journal.
The White Crow by Michael Robotham @scribnerbooks.bsky.social @michaelrobotham.bsky.social The White Crow was beautifully written, well thought out, perfectly paced, & gripping. If you have not read a book by Michael Robotham before, you are missing out. openbookposts.com/2025/06/30/t...
Publication day in Melbourne. Flight delays. Shocking weather. Street art. Book store visits. Brave readers defying the sleet. A peerless interviewer, Michael Williams. PS. And my lucky scarf.
THE WHITE CROW tour starts tomorrow. I'll give updates along the way - including a shout-out for events that have tickets available. CANBERRA should be a hoot with my old mate Chris Hammer on July 2. events.humanitix.com/meet-the-aut...
