CrimeFest 2014

This weekend is CrimeFest in Bristol, and we’re super excited to be attending with our authors Claire Kendal, Lars Kepler, and Andrew Taylor. Last year’s festival was a lot of fun – interesting and provocative panel topics; a relaxed and friendly atmosphere; and much rendezvousing in the bar between events!

I’m expecting a repeat performance, and it’s looking promising with these fabulous events in the offing. Hope to see you there…
