Crime fiction author William Shaw will be talking about his latest title ‘Deadland’.

The New York Times has called William Shaw’s series of detective books set in late sixties London “an elegy for an entire alienated generation.” Featuring DS Cathal Breen and the brash young constable Helen Tozer, they are set against the cultural and political revolution of the times. The Barry Award nominated A Song from Dead Lips was picked by Time Out as one of the crime books of 2013; The Daily Mail hailed A House of Knivesem as “a distinctive British crime drama, which benefits from a clear moral sense”. A Book of Scars, was picked by The Sunday Times as their Crime Book of the Month, and subsequently as one of the picks of the year.
