Next, chart-topping authors Stig Abell, Robert Thorogood, Janice Hallett and NCRM Ambassador Vaseem Khan and will discuss the rise of cosy crime.

And finally, top thriller writers Alice Slater, Louise Candlish, NCRM Ambassador Dorothy Koomson, and Steph Merritt will take to the stage to explore deadly obsessions.
