An Evening with Norfolk’s Masters of Mystery

Norfolk is famous for its breathtaking beauty - but beneath its quiet surface lies a world of dark secrets, ancient ruins, and high-stakes investigations. This special evening brings together two exceptional voices in contemporary British crime fiction to discuss how landscape shapes their mysteries.

 Details:

The event will include Elspeth Latimer and Heather Peck in conversation with S E Craythorne, an author reading, an audience Q&A session followed by a book signing and chance to meet the authors.

The Lost Detective - Elspeth Latimer

On a summer’s day, a tiny baby vanishes. The mystery is never solved, leaving a young mother lost in grief. Twenty-one years later, ex-police detective Dan Hennessy is struggling with his own tragic loss. When a neighbour disappears and a body turns up at the solar farm, Dan becomes desperate for answers. The haunted landscape is keeping secrets, and there are dangers lurking in the Brecks. Will he find hope for the grieving mother, and can he save himself?

The DCI Greg Geldard Norfolk Mystery Series - Heather Peck

Set against the haunting beauty of the Norfolk coast and countryside, Heather Peck’s multi-award-winning DCI Greg Geldard series delivers gripping, character-driven crime thrillers where nothing is ever as peaceful as it seems.

From ritual burials and organised crime to modern slavery, arson, and cold-blooded murder, DCI Greg Geldard faces cases that challenge both his courage and his conscience. Balancing personal turmoil with professional duty, Geldard’s investigations uncover the moral complexity behind every crime—and the hidden darkness that can lie beneath an ordinary life.
