Join celebrated novelist Jenny Pattrick for a sumptuous High Tea as she talks about becoming a best-selling writer in her sixties, her recent sojourn in France and her new novel Inheritance. Over delicately sliced sandwiches and sweet treats, Pattrick will talk about her hugely successful early novels, including The Denniston Rose and Heart of Coal, and her increasingly international reputation. Best known for her historical fiction, Pattrick's new novel takes her readers back to Samoa in the 1960s and to the New Zealand of today. As with her earlier books, Inheritance once again marries vivid landscapes with a page-turning narrative - this time with a mystery. This special event promises to be a magical afternoon with one of New Zealand's most beloved storytellers.
