Crime writer Valerie Laws, from the North East of England, is to give a talk about her new novel The Operator in a forthcoming event at Marton Library in Middlesbrough.
The Operator tells a sinister story of the killing of surgeons – mutilating them to mimic the operations they perform. It is also the sequel to the author’s award winning novel The Rotting Spot.
It sees small but fierce alternative health therapist and journalist Erica Bruce once more locks horns with the sceptic Detective Inspector Will Bennett in this action-packed, dark but witty thriller set in the North East. Top author Ann Cleeves describes it as ‘gripping from the first scene’.
Valerie, who lives in Northumberland, will be at Marton Library on Monday, September 29 at 7pm to talk about her new novel and crime writing in general.
Tickets are £3 and available from the library by calling 01642 300255. The event is being held with the support of the Friends of Marton Library who are keen to bring more authors to the library, which is located on The Willows.
