About this Event

The name's Khan, Vaseem Khan. Move over Bond, and hello, Q.

Author of two award-winning crime series set in India, the Baby Ganesh Agency series and the Malabar House historical crime novels, Vaseem brings a new James Bond spin-off featuring Ian Flemming’s most beloved of characters.

Quantum of Menace sees Q ousted from his job developing gadgets for 00 agents and back in his sleepy hometown. When his childhood friend, renowned quantum computer scientist Peter Napier dies in mysterious circumstances, Q feels compelled to investigate…

The Burning Grounds is the next thrilling novel from Abir Mukherjee, author of the British Book Awards Crime Thriller of the Year 2025, Hunted.

In the Burning Ghats of Calcutta, a renowned patron of the arts is found murdered. Enter Detective Sam Wyndham and Surendranath Banerjee, who need to put their differences aside to solve the case, as they’re thrust into the glamorous world of Indian cinema.
