On Thursday night @adrianmckinty ’s incredible book: The Chain, was crowned the winner of the 2020 Theakston Old Peculier Crime Novel Of The Year. Read his interview with the @Daily_Express ’ @MattNixson here. #TheakstonsCrime #TheakstonAward #TheChain

The Chain: Crime writer Adrian McKinty nearly ditched books

IT HAD been a long, arduous day's taxi driving and Adrian McKinty had finished his shift cleaning vomit from the back of his car when he took the call that would dramatically change his life.

What's that? Only 3 more sleeps to go until #TheakstonsCrime begins? Surely not?! It has come around so quickly but we can't wait to see you all on Thursday to begin a wonderful weekend of crime-writing fun!
