The six books are (with links to the catalogue if you want to know where they are or reserve them):
- Trust Your Eyes by Linwood Barclay (Orion)
- Dare Me by Megan Abbott (Picador)
- Bryant and May and the Invisible Code by Christopher Fowler (Transworld) – rated 5 star by 3 readers
- The Necessary Death of Lewis Winter by Malcolm Mackay (Pan Books)
- City of Devils by Diana Bretherick (Orion)
- The Scent of Death by Andrew Taylor (Harper Collins)
The book club will be a six-part series and will feature interviews with authors Martina Cole, Nicci French, Harlan Coben, Patricia Cornwell, Wilbur Smith and Frederick Forsyth.
The season builds up to the channel’s annual Crime Thriller Awards, which honour TV, books and film and will take place on 24 October at London’s Grosvenor House Hotel.
I have just watched the CTBC and must admit that the programme was awful, apart from Mark Billingham’s comments regarding the book award nominations. But he was under used. Harlan Coben’s talk was good and I thought that I was on to a winner. Alas, Bradley Walsh is learly not an avid reader of crime books and as for the lame contest between the husband and wife experts on Midsommer Murders, by that time, my head was buried in a cushion. Surely, the next show cannot be nearly as bad? Or can it?
