Rory Clements in Conversation
We are delighted to be hosting Rory Clements for a celebration of his much-anticipated new title Evil in High Places, released on the day of our event.
Rory Clements is one of our foremost local authors and is famous for his works of historical fiction. Best known for his John Shakespeare books, set in the Elizabethan era, and the Tom Wilde second world war spy thriller series, Clements has won several awards - including the Crime Writers' Association Historical Dagger twice.
He'll be in conversation with fellow local author Jay Warton, discussing his latest work set at the 1936 Munich Olympics: All eyes are on the Bavarian capital for the upcoming Olympic Games. As athletes fight for gold and the Nazis fight for power, Detective Sebastian Wolff faces a battle of his own.
A famous actress has disappeared and Wolff has been ordered to find her, fast. But Elena Lang is no ordinary film star: she is the mistress of Joseph Goebbels - Hitler's right-hand-man in the party that Wolff despises.
But this is a country on the brink of war, and corruption runs deep. In a search that will take him from high society to the city's darkest corners, Wolff will soon learn just how fine the line is between justice and jeopardy...
