About this Event

Bestselling author Clare Mackintosh joins us to launch her latest gripping psychological thriller, It’s Not What You Think.

‘A nail-biter of a thriller‘ – SHARI LAPENA

Drawing on her experience as a former police officer, It’s Not What You Think is a gripping domestic drama. Clare will be giving us an insight into the inspiration behind her fast-paced plots, brilliant characters and the big twists her books deliver.

‘I always see twists coming – but not this time’ – LEE CHILD

Following the interview, Clare will be signing copies of her books.

‘This book is so addictive it should come with a warning’ – ALICE FEENEY

Clare spent twelve years in the UK police force, including time in CID, leaving to work as a freelance journalist. She now writes full time. Clare’s debut I Let You Go was the fastest-selling title by a new crime writer in 2015 and won the Theakston Old Peculier Crime Novel of the Year.

Clare’s other books include Other People’s Houses, Game of Lies and Hostage.
