McNally Robinson Booksellers, Pan Macmillan, and PGC Canada invite you to join Ann Cleeves, the award-winning, bestselling author of the Vera and Shetland series, for a special "in conversation" event around her latest Vera Stanhope novel, The Dark Wives (MacMillan). Hosted by Joan Thomas, author of Wild Hope, winner of the 2024 Howard Engel Award for best crime novel set in Canada.
Ann Cleeves is the author of more than thirty-five critically acclaimed novels, and in 2017 was awarded the highest accolade in crime writing, the CWA Diamond Dagger. She is the creator of popular detectives Vera Stanhope, Jimmy Perez and Matthew Venn, who can be found on television in ITV’s Vera, BBC One’s Shetland and ITV's The Long Call respectively. The TV series and the books they are based on have become international sensations, capturing the minds of millions worldwide.
Ann worked as a probation officer, bird observatory cook and auxiliary coastguard before she started writing. She is a member of ‘Murder Squad’, working with other British northern writers to promote crime fiction. Ann also spends her time advocating for reading to improve health and wellbeing and supporting access to books. In 2021 her Reading for Wellbeing project launched with local authorities across the North East. She lives in North Tyneside where the Vera books are set.
