John Connolly and Mark Lawson

Recorded live at HIF’s Theakston Old Peculier Crime Writing Festival 2022

No one combines crime fiction, the gothic and the supernatural quite like John Connolly. He is the master of his trade, a scalpel in one hand and a bludgeon in the other, writing beautiful prose and brutal people.

As well as several blistering standalones, Connolly’s much-loved Charlie Parker series now runs to 20 novels, each more terrifying than the one before. His latest, The Nameless Ones, has a breathless international chase at its centre, starting with three butchered bodies arranged around the crucified remains of a fourth.

John Connolly will be interviewed by journalist, broadcaster and author Mark Lawson.
