About This Event
Join us for an uplifting morning with authorGillian McAllister at the Bookface Sip & Swap!
Bookface Sip & Swap with Gillian McAllister
Join us at 9.3am on Saturday 25 April at Glaschu for a morning of bookish chat .
Gillian McAllister is joining us — yes, the Sunday Times and New York Times bestselling author of nine standalone novels. Casual.
You’ll know her from Wrong Place Wrong Time (Waterstones Thriller of the Month, shortlisted for British Book Awards Crime & Thriller and the Theakston). Or maybe from Radio 2 Book Club. Or Reese’s Book Club. Or Richard & Judy. Basically… she’s everywhere for a reason.
Her books are smart, twisty, emotionally sharp — the kind that make you question every decision a character makes (and possibly your own).
We’ll be chatting about her latest, her plotting process, and how on earth she keeps delivering those gut-punch turns.
If you love a thriller that actually thrills, this one’s for you.
