Some say it’s grim up North, but these Northern crime writers have kept us on the edge of our seats with their gritty thrillers. To find out why the region has become such a compelling creative muse to so many crime writers, we’re inviting a panel of authors whose page-turning works all feature a northern backdrop.
Chaired by Saima Mir, author of The Khan, with behavioural analyst, psychotherapist and author of The Killing Song, and featuring Lesley McEvoy, the ‘Queen of Northern Noir’, Bradford crime writer, Liz Mistry, British-Asian crime writer, A.A. Dhand, and deputy head teacher turned author and playwright, J.M. Hall.
