Ian Rankin, Val McDermid, Joanne Harris and more: Exclusive audio from the 2010 Harrogate Crime Writing Festival
HEAR exclusive audio from the 2010 Harrogate Crime Writing Festival, including interviews with Val McDermid, Karin Slaughter and Joanne Harris.
More than 8,000 people attended the three-day festival at Harrogate's Crown Hotel, and the Yorkshire Post was there to bring you the highlights as audio programmes you can hear now or download to your MP3 player.
Among the sessions was a retrospective on the enduring appeal of Agatha Christie, 120 years after her birth and featuring her grandson Matthew Prichard, as well as her biographer Laura Thompson and author Andrew Taylor. The debate was chaired by Dreda Say Mitchell.
