I'll be interviewing two of the finest and funniest writers in the business - C.L. Taylor and Mark Billingham - about their new books, in Wantage on Fri 20th June. Come along if you're in the area. Scan the QR code or call the number below for tickets. It's going to be great!

Rob's a good un, and can write a bit too. This'll be ace. Pick up the first in the series, THE TROUBLED DEEP, if you haven't already. Paperback of that lands in three weeks.
