Looking for books to keep you up at night when you decide to read “just one more chapter”? We have the event for you. Three of the world’s most celebrated thriller writers join us on stage to talk about craft, mystery, crime, and plots that get your pulse racing. Louise Candlish’s The Only Suspect is a new work about obsession and deadly secrets. Shari Lapena has been called “a master of manipulation” by USA Today, and her latest thrilling domestic suspense novel, Everyone Here is Lying, proves it. Irish writer Liz Nugent, an international bestseller, joins us to talk about her wickedly dark and sharply observed novel, Strange Sally Diamond, about a woman confronting her unknown past. Your TBR pile just got bigger—but don’t worry, you’ll read these quickly. Moderated by André Picard.
