An Evening with Richard Armitage - The Cut

Join multi award winning actor and bestselling author Richard Armitage as he talks 'in conversation' with Clare Mackintosh about his new novel The Cut.

Richard's debut crime novel Geneva, published in 2023, was as instant bestseller. Now he returns with another unmissable, twisty psychological thriller.

A tragic accident? Or a terrible murder? Which story will make The Cut?

You saw her die

Thirty years ago, one of Ben Knott's schoolfriends was murdered. Another went to prison. The story ended. The village of Barton Mallett tried to move on.

Now her killer is back

As the murderer's sentence ends, the village is chosen as the unlikely location for a feature film by a Hollywood producer, with Ben's son Nathan cast in the leading role.

Can you keep hiding the truth?

As the film takes shape, Ben begins to recognise the storyline - from his own past. As his son becomes immersed in a tale of bullying and retribution, things turn dangerous, and an uncomfortable truth begins to emerge. Ben must choose between the safety of his children and reopening the wounds of the past. How much is he willing to risk to protect his family - and himself?
