Join us to hear two local authors talk about their latest novels. C.L. Miller’s second book in her Antique Hunter’s series will be released in hardback in mid-February. If you love golden age crime fiction, these will be a real treat for you. A stolen painting and a murder lead Freya and Aunt Carole aboard a glamorous Antiques cruise heading towards the Red Sea. The art gallery on board turns out to be full of stolen antiquities, and when things turn deadly, they come up against a dangerous and enigmatic art dealer known simply as The Collector. James Henry will talking about his new paperback, The Winter Visitor. This is the fourth of his books set in and around Colchester in the 80s and in this case the 90s. DS Daniel Kenton teams up with the unorthodox DS Brazier to find out what links the body of a former drug smuggler found the boot of a car in Abberton reservoir, with an arson attack on a Norman church and the apparent suicide of an ageing florist. These books are fascinating for the local detail.
