Death Sets Sail at the Reading is Magic Festival!

reading is magic festival

I’ve got great news for any Detective Society members sad to be missing me at this year’s Bath Children’s Literature Festival – although I won’t be able to be there in person, the festival is going online this year, and I’m part of it!

The Reading is Magic Festival launched its programme last week, and I’m thrilled to be part of its brilliant line-up, doing a panel with two of my detective author friends Sharna Jackson and Serena Patel! We’re chaired by Katherine Woodfine – and you can watch our event for free on the 30th September at 1:30pm.

Visit the website now to find out more and to see who else will be appearing – it’s an amazing list of authors and illustrators, and I hope it helps brighten up your autumn!
