What a treat to have Laura Purcell talk about the follow-up to her first novel The Silent Companions. That novel was one of her most popular and we can’t wait to read The House of Splinters. The evening will be hosted by fellow author JJA Harwood. If you love a classily written haunted house mystery, some early readers have promised the new novel will be even better. A new generation returns to the Bridge to rescue it from ruin, only for buried secrets and past injustices to lay their chill hand upon the families hopes. A perfect blend of the picturesque, the supernatural and dark folk-lore. Are the children safe in the shadow of “the silent companions”? Don’t miss this spooky, gothic masterpiece.
Doors will open at 6.45pm for a 7pm start. Tickets are £5 or £3 for people with the Waterstones Plus card, and you can purchase the book and ticket option for £20.
