An Afternoon with Elly Griffiths

An Afternoon with Elly Griffiths

Tue, 31 Jan 2023

Forensic archaeologist Dr Ruth Galloway has seen more than her fair share of bodies, buried by time, or buried by murder. Now one of her closest and oldest friends has disappeared in mysterious circumstances. Is it really possible that Cathbad could be a killer?

Ruth and Nelson's rocky relationship has been catalogued through 15 bestselling, internationally successful crime novels by Elly Griffiths. We're delighted to welcome her to a conversation event with actor David Learner. We'll hear more about her writing style, her plans for the future, her podcast and her new writing companion Pip the cat. Elly has won a host of major awards and now has an international following: among her many trophies are the Edgar Award from the USA, just one of the myriad countries who have taken her to heart.

Fresh from the printers during its very first week of publication there will be the chance to buy personally signed copies of The Last Remains and the now-extensive Ruth Galloway back list as well as Elly's other books, including the Brighton mysteries and the Justice series for younger readers. Our thanks to Niche Books of Huntingdon for being our companion bookseller on the day.

And of course there's time before the event to enjoy food and drink and great company in the wonderful surrounding of the historic Commemoration Hall. Afterwards, there's even time to visit the beautiful Niche Books itself, just up the High Street from the hall.

£7.50
