Renowned crime writer set to revisit Stockton Heath Library

On Thursday, September 18, at 7.30pm, Edwards will discuss his latest book, "Miss Winter in the Library with a Knife," which pays tribute to the Golden Age of crime fiction. The event is promoted by SWISH Library Friends. The narrative involves six individuals, each with connections to the crime writing world, participating in a Christmas game orchestrated by the enigmatic Midwinter Trust. Their task: to solve the fictional murder of a crime writer in a remote North Yorkshire village. Tickets are priced at £5, with a concession for students at £2, and can be obtained through Pat Barlow at pat.l.barlow@hotmail.co.uk or 07855 755859. Refreshments will be available, with donations appreciated. Places are limited; booking is essential. For more information, visit www.libraryfriendswish.org.uk.
