Sarah Ferguson in conversation with Kate Wild at Gleebooks

Join Sarah Ferguson and Kate Wild at Gleebooks for a thought-provoking conversation about Kate's debut book Waiting for Elijah. Waiting for Elijah is the culmination of Kate Wild’s six-year investigation into the police shooting of 24-year-old Elijah Holcombe in country NSW.

More information at Gleebooks.


Kate Wild is an investigative journalist whose work with distinguished teams at the ABC has been recognised with three Walkley Awards and a Logie. Her reports from Darwin, where she lived from 2010 to 2016, laid the groundwork for a Four Corners story on juvenile detention that promoted the calling of a Royal Commission. Like Elijah Holcombe, Kate grew up in country New South Wales; she now lives and works in Sydney.
