We are over the moon to announce that Peter James, one of the UK’s best loved crime writers, will be joining Daydreams for a rare appearance at Charlie’s Loft in October to celebrate the launch of his gripping new thriller Dead in Three Two One 🤩

Peter James is a New York Times and Sunday Times bestselling author best known for his crime thrillers featuring Detective Superintendent Roy Grace, who Queen Camilla recently named as her favourite fictional detective 🕵️‍♂️

Peter’s new book will be available at the event ahead of publication on 22 October, so get your ticket to guarantee one of the very first signed copies!

The event will include an author interview with Peter by award-winning author of Squeaky Clean, Paperboy and Rat Race, Callum McSorley, followed by an audience Q&A and book signing with both authors ✍️📚

🎙️📚Author Event - Dominic Hinde in conversation with Alistair Braidwood📚🎙️

Dominic Hinde is a journalist, writer and sociologist. He is currently Lecturer in Sociology at the University of Glasgow, where he researches climate change and the media.

Alistair Braidwood is the founder and presenter of Scots Whay Hae!, a podcast celebrating Scottish culture.

We bring the two together at Daydreams for a very special event to discuss Dominic’s new book Drifting North: Finding a Sustainable Future in Scotland’s Past.

Part memoir, part environmental history, part travelogue, this is a compelling narrative of connections – to place, energy and the possibility of renewal. Through the lens of one country, it asks a vital question: can the lessons of the past help us build a more sustainable future?

Event will include author interview, audience Q&A and book signing.
