Thrillers celebrated as crime writers tour county

Crime novelists will be visiting libraries across East Yorkshire in June to talk about writing thrillers.

Eight authors, including Hull's Nick Quantrill, will be taking part in a series of talks as part of National Crime Reading Month.

Hayley Clark from East Riding Libraries said the county was "so lucky to have such brilliant local authors" and she was excited to be involved in the events.

The free talks take place between Wednesday 4 June and Friday 27 June.

National Crime Reading Month is an initiative by the Crime Writers' Association and is funded by Arts Council England.

Eight writers will appear at the county's libraries, including Mr Quantrill, who authored the Joe Geraghy series of crime novels.
