The Lighthouse Centre on Lynn Road will welcome Anthony Horowitz to Ely to discuss his latest novel, The Word is Murder on Friday September 8.

“This page-turning new thriller is the first in a series of crime novels starring Detective Michael Hawthorne, and promises buried secrets, unexpected death and a trail of bloody clues,” say Toppings, who have organised the event.

Doors 7.10pm for a 7.30pm start. Admission costs £20 for the book and ticket.

Then on Saturday 9, radio presenter Jeremy Vine will be at St Mary’s Church to talk about his new book ‘What My Listeners Say’. Doors open at 7.10pm and admission costs £7 (collect on the day).

On Wednesday 13, head to Ely Cathedral for An Evening with comedian Robert Webb.

“Part-memoir, part call-to-arms from the award-winning and hilariously funny Robert Webb, ‘How Not to be a Boy’ promises to be an exceptional and even game-changing book.”

Doors open at 6.45pm for a 7.30pm start. Admission costs £10 (early bird) or £16.99 (book included).
