WORD Christchurch presents its most exciting festival yet. The spirit of adventure, and of 125 years of women's suffrage, runs through the festival with writers who take risks in their lives as well as their work.
A favourite at literary festivals the world over for her engaging and entertaining conversation, acclaimed and best-selling Glasgow-born author Denise Mina is a must-see for fiction fans of all stripes. Gripping, gritty and superbly written crime novels are her signature, but she has turned her hand to everything from short stories, to comics, to documentaries – and she has always scorned the conventional. Her latest book, the award-winning The Long Drop, is based on the true story of Peter Manuel, a serial killer operating in 1950s Glasgow. Mina talks to journalist Charlotte Graham-McLay.
