What's Happening
To kick off the weekend, on Friday night, we will be hosting a Murder Mystery dinner at the Royal Hotel in Cromarty. A gruesome and grizzly murder will happen before your very eyes but who done it? That is the question.
On Saturday and Sunday, our writers will be giving illustrated talks on their own books and styles of writing. This format will be of great interest to those budding writers out there or anyone with an interest as well as afficionados of the Crime and Thrillers genre. Sessions will be held all over Cromarty, at the Stables, Victoria Hall, the Brewery and the Courthouse.
Books will be on sale and book signings will be happening too.
