Was fantastic!
Brilliant night in Wantage tonight with @MarkBillingham and @radiomukhers. Huge thanks to everyone who came along and to @HungerfordBooks for inviting us and being so welcoming. Expert chairing by Abir. Mark was reasonably amusing I suppose. 😆😉

I’m more than somewhat delighted to see Shy Creatures rubbing shoulders with some of my own favourite books of 2024.
Congratulations to @ClareDChambers and her #ShyCreatures for making the @thetimes novel of the year list. And in such fine company ✨📚
