Meanwhile\, in Edinburgh\, new evidence reopens a closed case\, and the accidental death of a hotel manager starts to look like murder. \nBut what did Tom Jamieson’s book club have to do with his demise – and what will they do to keep their secrets?

They will be tested to their limits – and possibly beyond… \nVal McDermid has written five series of crime novels including eight featuring cold case detective Karen Pirie\, with Karen now starring in a major ITV series\, and eleven books with clinical psychologist Dr Tony Hill and DCI Carol Jordan which were adapted for television as Wire in the Blood\, starring Robson Green and Hermione Norris. Val has also published several award-winning standalone novels\, books of non-fiction\, short story collections and a children’s picture book\, My Granny is a Pirate. Her new Karen Pirie novel\, Silent Bones\, publishes in October 2025. \nVal has won multiple international awards\, including the CWA Gold Dagger\, the LA Times Book of the Year Award and the Grand Prix des Romans D’Aventure. She is a Fellow of both the Royal Society of Literature and the Royal Society of Edinburgh and has been a judge for the Women’s Prize for Fiction and the Man Booker Prize\, as well as chairing the Wellcome Book Prize in 2017.

SUMMARY:Brigid Lowe: The Bloody Branch (GRIFFIN BOOKS AFTER HOURS)
DESCRIPTION:Immerse yourself in a richly imagined world of myth\, magic\, and feminist storytelling with author Brigid Lowe\, as she discusses her new book The Bloody Branch\, a dark\, eco-gothic retelling of the Fourth Branch of the Mabinogion. \nThe Bloody Branch reimagines the stories of Blodeuwedd\, Arianrhod\, and Goewin through a fierce feminist and ecological lens\, bringing Wales’s national myths to life in a narrative charged with magic\, danger\, and ancient power. \nAs darkness spreads across the kingdom under the cruel ambition of the magician Gwydion\, three women must unite and unleash their most uncanny strengths to defend the land that binds them. Vital\, visceral and richly atmospheric\, Lowe’s novel is a story of desire\, revenge\, nature and female resilience\, casting an ancient light on themes that feel urgent and resonant today.\n\nBrigid Lowe grew up in a remote Welsh-speaking community on Ynys Môn with her Irish immigrant parents and younger sister. She now lives with her children in Yr Hen Ogledd — The Old North — once part of a shared Cumbric nation with Wales. She studied literature at Bangor\, completed her doctorate at Oxford\, and later taught at Sheffield and Cambridge Universities\, publishing widely on the art of fiction. Brigid descends from travellers\, circus performers\, mill workers and gallowglass warriors. She photographs flowers\, forages\, climbs pinnacles\, and swims in ice-cold waters\, caves and bottomless pools — a life steeped in the landscape that informs her fiction. \nThis event is part of our new Griffin Books After Hours series of talks\, interviews and discussions\, which will take place in our newly expanded shop. \n***\nWednesday 11 February  | 7.30 pm\nGriffin Books\, 9A Windsor Road\, Penarth\, CF64 1JB*\nTickets: £20.00 including a SIGNED hardback copy of The Bloody Branch (RRP £16.99)** / £8.00 Event Only*** / £5.00 Student Ticket / £5.00 Inclusive Ticket \n*IMPORTANT: Please be aware that the toilet at Griffin Books can only be accessed via three steps and so is not accessible for wheelchair users or people with mobility issues.

SUMMARY:The Keith Little Trio featuring Jane Williams
DESCRIPTION:The Keith Little Trio performs the best in jazz from the Swing era\, recalling the days of Benny Goodman\, Duke Ellington and ‘Fats’ Waller to name but a few. Expect an exhilarating night of Jazz and Swing from the 1930s\, 40s\, and beyond. \nKeith Little was first introduced to jazz at age 14 by his father Don\, a fine pianist in his own right. After many years on the road\, Keith returned home from Germany to lead one of Wales top bands; Keith Little Hot Six and later Keith Little Band. As well as being a regular on the UK jazz scene the band performed in the USA and across Europe. Keith is still thrilling audiences with his unique jazz touch\, and stunning boogie-woogie piano stylings.  \nJane Williams is a very much in demand jazz singer throughout Wales and beyond performing many times at the old Cafe Jazz\, Brecon\, Upton and Aberjazz Festivals\, and many other venues throughout the UK. Having recorded on Van Morrison’s album Roll with the Punches\, she truly has the voice of an angel and is not to be missed.  \nKevin Grenfell’s swing trombone-playing is a joy. He is a bandleader in his own right and regularly to be seen performing across England as a guest star. He is also well-known for his ready wit as the band’s frontman on stage.  \nBill Lynn hails from Bath and his driving bass playing and thoughtful soloing is delightful. Many years a music teacher\, he has also played for professional bands across the country.  \nJoin us for an evening that will treat you to a fantastic selection of great music\, while welcoming the exquisite voice of Jane Williams to sing some gorgeous melodies.

Rhian will be in conversation with BBC Radio Cymru 2 presenter and singer\, Lisa Angharad. Join us for the perfect bookish evening. This is a Welsh-language event. \nGyda’n Gilydd\nMae Alys a Saffi yn ffrindiau gore oes ond ers i Alys gael babi\, does ganddyn nhw ddim llawer yn gyffredin. Ond pan ddaw Elina\, mam newydd arall i’w bywydau’n annisgwyl\, mae’r tair yn sylweddoli bod heriau bywyd yn haws wrth iddyn nhw eu wynebu gyda’i gilydd. Stori dwymgalon am chwaeroliaeth a’r angen am gymuned i fagu babi. \nAlys and Saffi have been lifelong friends\, but since Alys had a baby\, they don’t have much in common. But when Elina\, another new mother\, unexpectedly enters their lives\, the three realise that life’s challenges are easier to face together. A heartfelt story about sisterhood and the need for a community to raise a baby. \nRhian Sion\nMae Rhian Siôn yn awdur ac athrawes sy’n angerddol am adrodd streon.
