Toby Virgo & Carter the Cabman
Pickering Book Tree 43a Market Place, PickeringAuthor Toby Virgo will transport us to Victorian London where we once again meet Carter the Cabman in his haunting new short story, The Dead Who Bury Us, which is set on All Hallows’ Eve in 1888. Following the tradition of chilling stories on long nights over the Christmas period, we think this is a perfect way to celebrate the season!

Gay Marris
Pickering Book Tree 43a Market Place, PickeringJoin us for the much anticipated return of crime writer Gay Marris to discuss her new novel, The Beasts of the Black Loch. This richly imagined mystery set in remote Scotland is infused with Gay’s knowledge of the natural world from her career as a research scientist, and takes us on a twisty investigation (unofficially) led by animal behavioural expert Dr Ava Dickens following a death accepted by most as accidental — but Ava knows this explanation doesn’t add up.
