#HullNoir~ Crime Fiction Festival @HullNoir 17 – 19 November 2017
Hull Noir arrives in the city on 17th-19th November to celebrate the best of British and international crime fiction – the festival playing host to the prestigious Iceland Noir on their bi-annual travels from the festival’s home city of Reykjavik.

I was beyond excited and honoured to be asked to be one of the official bloggers for Hull Noir. Along with Anne Cater from Random Things Through My Letterbox, I will be live tweeting, taking pictures, keeping authors in check and ensuring they behave themselves, and helping to showcase some brilliant crime fiction!
Hull is a city very much in the news right now – it’s City of Culture for 2017 – and the subject of a novel Maria in the Moon by Hull author Louise Beech who wrote is as a kind of homage to the city which was devastated by floods back in 2007. If ever there was a city to show how strong and together it is, Hull is the one.
So, who’s going to be there? Well anyone who’s anyone in the crime fiction world! –
“Master killer” – MARTINA COLE : A CRIME WRITING SILVER JUBILEE
NEW NOIR in the form of Joseph Knox and Emma Flint.
OFF THE BEATEN TRACK : EXPLORING ROADS LESS TRAVELLED – Sarah Ward and Daniel Pembrey who set their novels in some very interesting places…

As well as author panels, there’s going to be workshops, so if you’re planning to commit a fictional murder anytime soon, you might want to sharpen your pen and get some insider knowledge from the ones in the know.
