The talk will be given in English and the event is free of charge. Everyone is welcome.
Readers, authors and history lovers are invited to learn more about the craft of writing and researching a new crime fiction book set in Victorian-era Malta.
Our guest speaker will talk about the historical research and influences that have shaped her work, including her fascination with Victorian detectives.
Themes of colonial rule, Malta’s status as a military base, poverty and corruption will be explored as a backdrop to the murder mystery, as well as Maltese culture seen through the eyes of a Scot brought up in the Presbyterian Church.
'Death in Valletta', written by Malta-born Lynne Marie Taylor, is her first historical crime novel in a series of books set in the Maltese Islands of the 1880's.
The book was published by Bloodhound Books in April 2024, and best-selling author Vaseem Khan, Chair of the Crime Writers’ Association, gave the book a 5-star review, calling it ‘A well written and absorbing historical mystery’.
