At this year's Bloody Scotland I'll be sharing the stage - and a laugh or two no doubt - with the wonderful Caro Ramsay and the fabulous Michael J. Malone. And the invoice is in the post for both of those superlatives. A guy's gotta eat. We three will be coming together at 3.15pm in […]
I'm honoured to be part of North Lanarkshire's Encounters Festival this autumn. On Thursday October 8 I'll be doing a prison event in the afternoon and then at night I'll be in Motherwell Library talking about the Davie McCall books, true crime, my bid to achieve telly stardom, investigating real-life crime and maybe even the […]

The venue is the Steps Theatre in the city's Central Library. Sounds posh! We'll be talking crime, writing and writing crime. We may […]
For those who missed the theatrical experience of a lifetime in Waterstones Argyle Street on Friday April 8, I'll be back in the company of Caro Ramsay and Theresa Talbot for a special panel of crime chat later this month. There'll be no histrionics this time - although you never know with Theresa (she's […]
