WHO doesn’t like a good murder story?

Roy Maloy certainly does – he is Australia’s most prolific true crime author.

Euroa Library will host an entertaining evening with Roy when he visits on Wednesday, 25 June.

A proud Wadawurrung and Yorta Yorta man, Roy is a best-selling true crime author with 15 books and over a million published words under his belt.

Roy will regale us with humorous, dramatic and thought-provoking tales from his research and published books, followed by information for those interested in researching true crime themselves.

Roy’s published works focus primarily on the biographies of 1890’s-1930’s Australian criminals.

His books include Squizzy, a biography of the iconic criminal Squizzy Taylor, while his most recent publications are Black Widow – Women Who Kill and The Crutchie Push, a biography of one of Australia's most notorious gangs.

As an author, Roy has a substantial reputation for encouraging and fostering community appreciation for history, research, and publishing.

On Wednesday, Roy will offer tips for true crime enthusiasts to help get them started in research and publishing.

The session is suitable for everyone, including those passionate about researching but not necessarily publishing.

It is designed to offer insights into how to research, compile, and publish Australian historical stories, biographies and true crime material.

Roy is also an accomplished performer and storyteller so the evening will no doubt be entertaining.

If you would like to meet Roy and hear tales of murder and mayhem, join us at Euroa Library on Wednesday, 25 June at 6pm.
