COMING EVENTS IN OCTOBER

Booka Bookshop Present...two events to get excited about this October... Join us in Bridgnorth for an evening with bestselling author Janice Hallet as she talks about her new murder mystery The Silent Appeal, the highly anticpated sequel to her record breaking debut The Appeal. A New Play. Another Murder. Who Will Speak the Truth? It’s a new theatrical season in Lower Lockwood, and the amateur thespians of the Fairway Players are starting rehearsals for their production of Agatha Christie’s The Hollow. Despite divisive new arrivals, countless petty jealousies and a near-fatal accident with the lighting rig, surely this will be their greatest show to date? But someone isn’t going to make it to opening night. Could it be producer Sarah-Jane’s mysterious sister, lately arrived home after twenty years abroad? New member Lucas, whose shady business dealings may be his downfall? Or perhaps once-convicted murderer Issy Beck, recently acquitted but still up to her old tricks? Lawyers Charlotte and Femi must sift through the emails, texts and police reports to identify the victim and find out why the person convicted of the murder refuses to speak out in their own defence… Will they uncover the truth in time? Will you? Whether you’ve read The Appeal or not, this is the perfect novel for longtime fans and new readers alike! Don’t miss this opportunity to see Janice Hallett discussing the inspiration, research, and the plotting behind her bestselling murder mysteries Join us for an evening of life affirming poetry with Sunday Times bestselling poet Donna Ashworth as she introduces her exciting new collection The Art of Being Easily Pleased.
