About this Event
We are hugely excited to welcome the globally bestselling writer Anthony Horowitz to Hungerford.
The author has written over 50 acclaimed novels including the Magpie Murders, Moonflower Murders, the Detective Hawthorne series and the hugely popular teen spy Alex Rider series. He is also responsible for creating and writing some of the UK’s most loved and successful TV series, including Midsomer Murders and Foyle’s War. In January 2022 he was awarded a CBE for his services to literature.
Join the author as he chats to Susannah Simons about his life as a writer and introduces his latest book, A Deadly Episode. There will be an opportunity to ask questions afterwards and get a copy of the book signed.
About the Book:
An unputdownable new mystery in the Hawthorne and Horowitz series.
The Word is M**der, the first book in the Hawthorne series, is being made into a major feature film.
The actors have been cast, the script written, and filming has already started in Hastings.
But when Hawthorne and Anthony visit the set, they find a far from happy family.
The director’s pretentious, the screenwriter’s an eco-warrior, the two stars hate each other, and the producer has run out of money.
And things are about to get much, much worse.
In the middle of shooting, the actor playing Hawthorne is stabbed – which leaves the real Hawthorne with no choice. He has to step in and investigate his own M**der.
Because the killer may not have got the right man. Was it Hawthorne himself who was meant to be the target?
A Deadly Episode is a wild ride through a world that the author knows only too well, and the most personal case Hawthorne has had to deal with so far.
