About The Ginger Cat Bookshop Presents An Evening With Chris Brookmyre

Listed Under Books Events / Nights Out Events

FORGET WHAT YOU THINK YOU KNOW, THIS IS NOT THAT CRIME NOVEL.

You know Penny Coyne. The little old lady who has solved multiple murders in her otherwise sleepy village, despite bumbling local police. A razor-sharp mind in a twinset and tweed.

You know Johnny Hawke. Hard-bitten LAPD homicide detective. Always in trouble with his captain, always losing partners, but always battling for the truth, whatever it takes.

Against all the odds, against the usual story, their worlds are about to collide. It starts with a dead writer and a mysterious wedding invitation. It will end with a rabbit hole that goes so deep, Johnny and Penny might come to question not just whodunnit, but whether they want to know the answer.

A cross-genre hybrid of Agatha Christie and Michael Connelly, The Cracked Mirror is the most imaginative and entertaining crime novel of the year, a genre-splicing rollercoaster with a poignantly emotional heart.

Following our author talk you will get the chance to ask Chris any burning questions that you might have and his books will be available for signing. Licensed bar available on the night. We can't wait to see you there!!
