Special Guest: John Connolly

No one combines crime fiction, the gothic and the supernatural quite like John Connolly. He is the master of his trade, a scalpel in one hand and a bludgeon in the other, writing beautiful prose and brutal people. As well as several blistering standalones, Connolly’s much-loved Charlie Parker series now runs to 19 novels, each more terrifying than the one before. His latest, The Nameless Ones, has a breathless international chase at its centre, starting with three butchered bodies arranged around the crucified remains of a fourth. John Connolly will be interviewed by journalist, broadcaster and author Mark Lawson.
