There are just 22 days until Death in the Spotlight is released in the UK and Ireland. I am SO nervous and SO excited, and I know you can’t wait to read it.

There will be lots of chances to meet me this autumn, and I’ve got a list of all of the dates that have been confirmed so far below (There are quite a few that I’m still actively working on, including signings in Leeds and Norfolk, and I hope to be able to share firm dates with you very soon).

I’m very happy to hear requests for places fans want me to visit, and it will influence where I visit on future tours. But please be patient and remember that I have a strict limit on how many days I can tour, to make sure I have time to write as well. I’m not going to be able to say yes to everyone – but I am doing my best to make sure I reach as many regions as I can. I love meeting my fans, and it makes me so proud to know so many of you want me to come see you!
