Locked Room Crime with Tom Hindle, L.D Smithson & Rachel North

Part of Farsley Lit Fest Crime Day. THREE exciting crime events in one sitting, and even more authors. Attend just one, come to two, or join us for all three events.
In this session at 1pm:
A luxury airship. A remote sea fort in a reality TV show. A private island. We’ll be in conversation with these bestselling authors about their latest novels and their locations; delving into the unfailingly entertaining subgenre of ‘locked room crime’.
Originally hailing from Leeds, Sunday Times Bestseller Tom Hindle’s newest novel ‘Death in the Arctic’ – like his previous books (including The Murder Game and A Fatal Crossing) was inspired by masters of the crime genre including Agatha Christie and Anthony Horowitz.
L. D. Smithson was born in Staffordshire and now lives in Ilkley with her husband and their three children. She is an occupational psychologist as well as a crime writer with six psychological crime thrillers under her belt.
Rachel North was born in Scarborough but now lives in Leeds. She has an MA in Creative Writing. Under the name Caroline Bond, she is the author of six novels, including two Radio 2 Book Club picks.
