Now in its fourth year, Killer Women Festival of Crime Writing & Drama (15th March 2020) is the perfect way to stay up-to-date with all the latest crime fiction, TV dramas and cultural debates around justice, prisons, gangs, toxic masculinity, true crime and more.
London’s only friendliest and only author-led crime leads the way with festival firsts:
An exclusive competition in honour of CSI pioneer and mother of forensic science Frances Glessner Lee, who created the Nutshell Studies of Unexplained Death: 20 miniature crime scenes made for the purpose of training homicide detectives, many still in use today.
Learn what makes a good police dog, and why TV dramas always get canine policing wrong with Sniffer pup Bob, Riley, explosive detection, and master drug dog Stan.
Explore what the brain does when disaster strikes, and how we can best survive it, with former police and military psychologist Emma Kavanagh.
Plus:
Britain's only black chief constable and Chief Inspector of the CPS Michael Fuller (Kill the Black One First); Alison Levitt QC, chief counsel to the CPS during the Savile Enquiry, and barrister Sarah Langford (In Your Defence) discuss whether the criminal justice system is fit for purpose.
