First Monday is going all out for its July 4th
event, sponsored by Killer Reads,
with triple CWA Historical Dagger winner Andrew Taylor (author of The American
Boy and superb new novel The Ashes of
London), Stephen Booth (Multiple award winning writer of the
Cooper and Fry series and respected goat breeder (honest – we looked it
up)), Anna Mazzola (winner of the Brixton Bookjam Debut Novel competition
for her stunning debut novel The Unseeing)
and Beth Lewis (London-based editor and former circus performer –
whose wonderful debut novel The Wolf Road
is taking the publishing world by storm). The evening will be chaired
by Claire McGowan, bestselling author of the Paula Maguire series and
senior lecturer on the City University Crime Writing MA course. Are they
excited to have five phenomenal authors talking to us about their books? Yes.
Yes, they are.
A mix between a social evening and a festival-style
panel, First Mondays offers the crime fiction community – whether readers,
writers or industry professionals – a place to meet, enjoy each other’s company
and hear about the latest and most intriguing crime fiction around.
First Mondays begin at 6.30pm on the first Monday
of each month with a panel discussion chaired by, amongst others, Barry Forshaw
(Brit Noir etc), Jake Kerridge (Daily Telegraph) and James Kidd (Independent). Upcoming authors include
Sophie Hannah, Mark Billingham and Belinda Bauer, as well as a host of
established and debut authors from all over the world. After the panels, the
conversation spills over to The Peasant pub.
First Monday is grateful to City University’s Crime
Thriller MA Programme and Goldsboro Books for their generous support in staging
our events. The July event will be held in the College Building of City
University on St John Street (close to Angel Tube station).
