1st May: 5.45pm Women of Crime Never mind being ladylike or faint hearted. Women write some of the darkest and cleverest crime fiction. Not least Val McDermid and Louise Welsh, who will be sharing with chair Michael Odell how they weave their plots to keep their readers so gripped.
1st May: 7.30pm Reinventing Jane Austen Just to prove that the themes of Jane austen’s great novels are as relevant today as ever, the crime novelist Val McDermid is the latest best-selling author to write a 21st century Austen update – this time Northanger Abbey, the second book in the HarperFiction’s Austen Project.
