And Sleep When You’re Dead named as one of the @FinancialTimes’ Best Books of 2022 in their thriller list today. If the FT says it’s a “complex satisfying read” it must be true. (Thanku @adamlebor!!!)

Just one week to go! Make sure you've got a ticket for Manchester's PREMIER crime fiction event 🎟️ @TrevorWoodWrite @NileshaChauvet @TonyKent_Writes @robparkerauthor

@VaseemKhanUK That’s a terrific idea. How exciting

1/4 OK. The news is finally out. I am writing a series of mystery novels featuring my reimagining of Q from the James Bond franchise. Exciting & terrifying, in equal measure. First book: QUANTUM OF MENACE, out autumn 2025. Pre-order here: geni.us/quantumofmenace

@franquinn I think they’re excellent escapism in the way a really good action movie is

@judithoreilly Thank you for a really good read! I haven’t read a lot of thrillers lately and you’ve reminded me how much I like them

Well this was a rollercoaster of a read! Killing State by @judithoreilly is a proper thriller, with tons of ‘Oh my God how are they going to get out of this?’ twists and turns, a scarily realistic threat and superb characters - if there’s a Fangfang fan club I want to join it

Reminder… the brilliant @seanlusk1 is in @wstonesdurham THIS SATURDAY 10am book chat, 11am signing. All welcome. Free event. Just turn up. Bring friends. Enjoy. Buy books.

🔦 AUTHOR SPOTLIGHT 🔦 Tony Kent (@TonyKent_Writes) is a criminal barrister and former boxer who writes thrillers. He is also the organiser of the @ChilternKills book festival 📚 Tony will be joining us on 24th July - get yourself a ticket now 🎟️

I'm going to be talking about my book #WitnessX @HarrogateFest #Theakstonscrime this Saturday at 3.30! Come along and say hi! #WitnessX #crimefiction #specfic #murder #serialkiller

At last! A new crime festival for the North-West of England. I'll be there with @northern_crime to spice up any February gloom. Can't wait to transform Stockport's deepest, darkest secrets into a best-seller.

Great to be part of this! Bound to be huge fun.

One week today the brilliant @seanlusk1 will be chatting & signing both his books in @wstonesdurham free events just turn up, bring friends, buy books & enjoy. Chat 10 - 11am. All welcome. Signing 11am - 2pm. See you there! Please RT / repost.

@Lizzy11268 It’s a really good read. @TrevorWoodWrite is massively talented when it comes to creating characters u care about from the get-go.

@judithoreilly Oh I have this. Must move it up a bit.

Loved this. Refreshingly original with a brilliantly engaging central detective. The Silent Killer is another twisty, cracking read from the fantastic storyteller Trevor Wood. Out next week!
