Meet The Murderists! A Free Literary Event

All Events

Information

As the nights draw in, and the shadows around us deepen, what better to add to the autumnal thrills than to settle down with a good murder mystery? But - how on earth are such stories crafted? Where do the ideas come from? What  goes on in the heads of the murderists - the authors who craft the stories we love? Can we learn any tips to have a go ourselves?

Come to this fantastic free panel event and find out! We present this fantastic panel of writers, facilitated by  CHRIS MCDONALD (DI Eric Piper mysteries, The Stonebridge Mysteries):

SEAN WATKIN (DCI de Silva mysteries, and shortlister for the McDermid Debut Award 2025)

- SARAH HILARY (Someone Else's skin, No Other Darkness; Winner of the Theakstons Crime Novel of the Year)

- NATALIE CHANDLER (superb psychological thrillers The Voices, What We Did)

- ROB PARKER (The Ben Bracken thrillers, The Cam Killick Norfolk Mysteries)

Although this is a FREE event, you'll be able to buy books by the authors! Big thank you to SERENITY BOOKSELLERS of Romiley for organising the book stall. Bring your spending money...we can't wait to welcome you!
