- Finn Longman . I write a mixture of YA and Adult novels, and have been know to describe myself as ‘genrequeer’ due to my refusal to stay in any one category. My debut novel, The Butterfly Assassin, is a YA thriller about a traumatised teenage assassin trying (and failing) to live an ordinary life, and was published in May 2022 by Simon & Schuster UK. The sequel The Hummingbird Killer was published in May 2023, and the third book, Moth to a Flame, in May 2024. My first adult book, The Wolf and His King, is a literary fantasy retelling of the medieval lai ‘Bisclavret’, and will be published in 2025 by Gollancz, with two further standalone titles in 2026 and 2027.

The authors listed will be coming to share their stories, writing experiences and extracts from their latest book.

Alison Bruce is the author of 10 crime novels and two non-fiction titles. Her first novel, Cambridge Blue, was described by Publishers Weekly as an ‘assured debut’ and introduced both detective, DC Gary Goodhew, and her trademark Cambridge setting. She went on to write six further novels in the DC Goodhew series before writing two psychological thrillers I Did It for Us and The Moment Before Impact. Because She Looked Away is the first in a new series, again set in Cambridge but this time featuring DCI Ronnie Blake and the DEAD team. Alison herself lives just outside Cambridge and has been shortlisted twice for the CWA Dagger in the Library award.
