About this Event
Alison Stockham’s debut novel, The Cuckoo Sister, was a top 10 bestseller and was also longlisted for the Lucy Cavendish Fiction Prize. Her novels The Silent Friend, The New Girl, The Man She Married, Let Her Go followed with Listen to Me due to publish in September 2026. From a background in film and television production, working in film dramas and then TV documentary production for the BBC and Channel 4, she then worked as the events coordinator for Cambridge Literary Festival. Now a full time writer, she lives in the city with her husband, their children and their cat, who keeps her company while she works on the next book.
Alexa Danesford knows how to spot someone in trouble. Before she was a mother, it was part of her job in the music industry. And as soon as she sees up- and-coming singer Lola Green perform, she immediately knows she's in need of help.
When Lola goes missing, Alexa could kick herself. She saw the signs, and now it’s too late. Or is it? Alexa has seen how these things can go wrong and she can’t – no, won’t – let it happen again. She’ll do all she can to save Lola.
Join Alison, in collaboration with Alex Elbro host of the Behind the Music visualised podcast, for a Listen to Me themed music quiz with a prize for the winner.
