EVENTS 2025

As the publication date for THE CURE approaches, events are starting to roll in.
Check back here for updates, there are some exciting festival announcements coming, it would be wonderful to see you!

LOCAL LAUNCH OF THE CURE
Thursday 3rd April, 6pm, Witney Waterstones

I am delighted to invite Oxfordshire readers to the local launch of THE CURE at Witney Waterstones.
Patty and Gem have once again pulled out all the stops, and we will embark on discussions about the book, the research that inspired it and there will be plenty of time for questions.
There may also be rejuvenating elixirs on offer by way of refreshment, although the effects may be somewhat superficial and temporary!
To reserve your place on the night simply email witney@waterstones.com or pop into the shop, and you can also preorder your copy of The Cure for signing on the night.

PRE-LAUNCH INSTAGRAM LIVE
Wednesday 9th April, 7.30pm

Join me for a chat about my inspiration for THE CURE with the fabulous Squadpod: a team of book enthusiasts and bloggers who support authors by celebrating their books and sharing reviews with their followers.
Anyone can join, you just need to find and follow me here on Instagram and you can tune into the event and post your questions in the chat. Should be fun!

THEAKSTON OLD PECULIER CRIME WRITING FESTIVAL
What Planet Are They On?
Saturday 19th July, 3.30pm Harrogate

So excited about this panel, and very honoured to be appearing at such a prestigious international crime festival.
I will be on a panel with Ben Aaronovitch, famed for his Rivers of London series, Sarah Pinborough, whose many bestsellers include Behind Her Eyes, now a major Netflix hit, Adam Oyebanji, author of Braking Day and chaired by Doug Johnstone, author of the BBC2 Between the Covers pick The Space Between Us.
We’ll be discussing the different settings in our books, from Jamaican biolabs to far away planets and a very alternative London, all of which have one thing in common: murder.

The festival runs over four days, and really is a fabulous event with major names from the crime fiction community descending on Harrogate.
You can find out about the other stellar panels and book here.

Keep your eyes out for more exciting festival news to come.
Just waiting for the official green light to start shouting about them…

CRIME CENTRAL
Thursday 26th Feb, 6pm Central Library, Manchester

I had such a blast at my first event of the year at the stunning Manchester Central Library on a crime fiction panel with Suzy Aspley, whose chilling gothic debut Crow Moon was shortlisted for multiple awards last year, Nick Quantrill, author of the Joe Gerachty thrillers, and hosted by Chris MacDonald.
There’s a fabulous crime writing and reading community in Manchester, and it was lovely to chat to readers about the books, answer questions and then quench our thirst at a local hostelry afterwards!
