Crime writing

Spike Island Literary Festival

I’m delighted to be part of the inaugural Spike Island Literary Festival which takes place on September 2-4, 2022. I’m part of a reading on the island with fellow crime-writers Amy Cronin and Catherine Kirwan on Saturday September 3rd. You can order tickets here.  Here’s the full line-up.  

National Crime Reading Month Event

I was delighted to participate in an event to celebrate National Crime Reading Month in Cork City Libraries with Catherine Kirwan, author of Cruel Deeds and Darkest Truth. We spoke about out favourite crime novels and writers and a great crowd turned up. And here are the six books I chose! But it could have been another six by six other writers just as easily.
