Lovely book post in the form of A D Bergin’s The Wicked of the Earth. (Featured here with some southern witches and their pig). Cannot wait to get stuck into this one, folks!

Can’t wait to chair this event to celebrate publication of Tom Mead’s fabulous new book. Come along, book lovers!

The Velvet Underground's 'Lady Godiva's Operation' has just popped up randomly on my Spotify. Thank you, blessed algorithm.

Just popping back onto social media to say how much I’m enjoying the first few chapters of Chris Lloyd brilliant Banquet of Beggars. So great to be back in Eddie’s company again!

Well, Ian Rankin is spot on. Our Dominic has pulled a blinder with this one. White City has the depth and complexity of Ellroy’s L A Confidential but with more heart. All the dark beauty of 1950s London wrapped up in a blood red cover. Superb!

THE RED HOLLOW is only 99p on your Kindle throughout September! A dark and atmospheric 1930s-set historical crime novel, it's the perfect book to add to your autumn reading list. 🍂📖 Get the ebook here: amazon.co.uk/Red-Hollow-Wil…

A library is a “food bank for the brain” ❤️ Brilliant Brum author Lee Child championing his beloved Tower Hill Library which now faces closure by Bham City Council. Every Birmingham library contains a multitude of futures. Keep pushing back. Listen at 2:23 bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…

Let’s go! Brum Library Zine is coming. From 21st September zines will be freely available in every community library in Birmingham. 35 Brum writers celebrating our 35 amazing, unique, essential libraries. Join the fight against library cuts with Birmingham Loves Libraries 💘

If you fancy a weird dose of Midlands Noir this October, please join me at Erdington Library on 12th October as part of the Birmingham Literature Festival.

My gorgeous copy of the Brum Library Zine has arrived today. Why not pop into your local library and get a free copy? Also, visit Birmingham Loves Libraries to learn more about the campaign to save them!

Lovely to see that the Brum Library Zine has made The Guardian! theguardian.com/books/2024/sep…

I'm very excited to be taking part in this event to celebrate 50 years of Calibre Audio and the brilliant work they do in making books accessible. Come and join us for a night of literary chat at the gorgeous Rep/Brum Library!

Just coming back onto ‘socials’ to say The Cure are still fucking ace. (Watching the concert on the BBC, obvs).

Popping back online to tell all you tough guys about Birmingham’s only film noir, Time Bomb. It’s 1953 and the train is set to blow, bab! See my article below and have a happy #Noirvember

Trying again with the correct dates. Come and say hello to me and fellow crime writers Jo Callaghan and Chris Whitaker who’ll be at Birmingham Waterstones for their fabulous Christmas Evening on Dec 3rd. Rumour has it bab extraordinaire, Joe Lycett, will be there too!

If you are local it would be lovely to see readers at this free event. 5pm onwards Thursday 12th December Waterstones, Leamington Spa Authors appearing: Stuart Turton, Natalie Marlow, Tom Mead and me! #Leamington #BookEvent #Authors

A haunted detective, a phantom killer . . . If you love historical mysteries, we have the book for you. THE RED HOLLOW by Natalie Marlow is only 99p on your Kindle throughout December! ✨ Get the ebook here: amazon.co.uk/Red-Hollow-Wil…

Top drawer English-folk-horror-cum-country-house-mystery wyrdnoir from Natalie Marlow at 99p on your electro-palimpsest. THE RED HOLLOW is one of favourite books of the year, and not just because it has a mermaid with vagina dentata, a 50 page mescaline trip, and wild occultism.

I’m sorry I’m late for work. I had to sing ‘December will be Magic Again’ by Kate Bush to my cat.

Come and help me celebrate the paperback publication of The Red Hollow at the mighty Nuneaton Waterstones. There WILL be cake!
