Countdown begins!
The Festival is fast approaching, and we are counting down the hours until the party on opening night, when we’ll at last find out the winner of the Theakstons Old Peculier Crime Novel of the Year.
If you’re coming to the Festival, then we can’t wait to see you! If you’re not already coming, then this is your last chance to get tickets. So what are you waiting for? Our special event ‘The Wire’ is completely sold out, so if you’ve already got a place, then you’re one of the lucky ones.
If you weren’t so lucky, though, there are still plenty of brilliant events to tickle your crime-writing taste buds. Why not find out how crime fiction is adapted for TV and film in Shoot the Book? Or how childhood reading can shape the adult writer in Nursery Crimes? Or meet the latest names to enter the crime scene in New Blood?
