Two Lincolnshire-based crime authors.Two female detectives.
Two novels set in the cold of Northern winters...
Glasgow-born Lynne McEwan is a former newspaper photographer turned crime author. The latest novel in her Detective Shona Oliver series, The Winter Dead, is a fast-paced, twisty Scottish crime thriller.
How do you solve a murder when you don't have the body?
A blood-soaked hammer is discovered in a lorryload of wood delivered to a local pub. DI Shona Oliver appears to have a murder weapon, but where is the victim? Then a call comes in that local forest ranger and ex-soldier John MacFarlane isn't answering his phone. There's no sign of MacFarlane at his cottage, and the only clue the team have to go on is a bloody trail in the snow which ends abruptly and leads to nowhere.
Caroline Mitchell is a bestselling author - a former police detective, she has worked in CID and now writes full-time.
Her latest novel, The Ice Angels, starts ten years ago, in the depths of the Finnish winter, when Detective Elea Baker's daughter was taken-and never found. Now, in the quiet streets of Lincoln, girls are disappearing again. When one is found on the cathedral steps, clutching a chilling clue linked to the decade-old abduction, there's only one person who can solve the case: Elea.
Lynne and Caroline will be in conversation with Dr Tim Rideout.
