Talking about the mix of crime and history with Nicola Ford, Lesley Thomson, Oscar de Muriel and Fiona Veitch Smith.

There is no mystery about where the North’s crime fiction fans will soon be heading – Newcastle Noir is back.

The hugely popular literary weekend is returning for its sixth year and the event is on the move.

Tony said: ”As a North-East based company we are proud to be supporting the fantastic Newcastle Noir. It is not only a highly significant literary event, it is great fun.”

Some of the country’s best-loved crime writers, many from the region, will be present alongside authors from more than a dozen other countries.

Newcastle Noir 2019 will be held at Newcastle City Library as organisers bid to widen the appeal of the annual crime lovers’ weekend.
