Ann Cleeves - Sponsored by Savills

For our first ever crime writing event we’re thrilled to have one of the genre’s queens. Through her three series, featuring Vera Stanhope, Matthew Venn and Jimmy Perez, Ann Cleeves doesn’t merely write gripping whodunnits but explores, with intense humanity, the painful stories behind the crimes. She’ll be in conversation with Patrick Gale about her career, her process and the interplay between her novels and their television adaptations. They’ll also talk about The Raging Storm, the latest mystery she has set her gay North Devon detective, but we promise there’ll be no spoilers!
