To create thrillers which are both page turners and profound is a skill so rare that it borders on alchemy, yet these supremely talented authors somehow square that circle with practiced ease. 

Abir Mukherjee’s new novel is the outstanding and groundbreaking Hunted, a perfectly paced story of parents thrown together in a race to find their fugitive children before they’re complicit in a terrorist catastrophe. Chris Whitaker’s much-anticipated new book All the Colours of the Dark is a truly epic tale – rich in character and heart – of love, murder, missing children, and the hunt for those who took them. 

Chaired by Jenny Brown.
Crime in the Spotlight reading from Claire Wilson.
