Our guest authors will be discussing their new books and all things crime - favourite detectives and why it is Maigret, must watch TV (anyone else devour The Killings at Parrish Station on Stan?), inspiration for their novels, writing insights, and best way to murder somebody (on the page, honest!) followed by the opportunity for audience questions and book signings.

Seating will be cabaret style at tables. Dinner service will be available from the bar.

Author of An Afterlife for Rosemary Lamb (2022) and Shadows of Winter Robins (2024), she writes what she terms ‘twisty fiction’ with a focus on lives that creep up on people and there being more to everyone than meets the eye. She currently works as an Education Assistant in a primary school, which leaves her early mornings, weekends and school holidays to write.
