Ever wondered what goes through the mind of a crime writer? What makes us sit around plotting misery and mystery instead of doing something useful? Why do so many lovely clean-living wholesome people (including me, of course) enjoy crime fiction?

I’m hoping to pick the brains of fellow-writer Adrian Magson – and think up a few answers myself – in conversation at Stony Stratford Library on Thursday 29 January at 7.30pm No tickets, no charge, no guarantees. Just come along and join in.

It’s part of the Stonywords Festival, and stacks more events can be found listed here.
