About the event
Marian Keyes describes Ann Cleeves as ‘a stone cold genius’. While Richard Osman says that ‘everything Ann writes is incredible’. We’re in complete agreement! And can’t wait to welcome Ann back to The Exchange for the launch of her new novel.
The Dying Light takes place during a scorching heatwave. Detective Matthew Venn is called to investigate the death of a young woman at a luxurious holiday home belonging to rising political star Paul Armstrong. As media scrutiny intensifies, Venn uncovers a community brimming with secrets, where the deadliest truths are those in the shadows …
It’s another ‘incredible work of stone cold genius’ … and you could have a signed and dedicated first edition by joining crime writing’s Angel of the North at her first UK event for The Dying Light.
