An evening of terrible things happening to terrible people.
Is a panel of distinguished Christie fans sharing their unique insights to her work against a background of gruesome deaths your cup of tea? This is the event for you. There will be high drama. There will be horrible murders. And there will be prizes, for those who know their Christie...

Kitty Murphy lives on the westerly edge of County Clare, surrounded by cows. She writes as Kitty Murphy for murder mysteries set in a fictional Dublin drag scene, Death in Heels and Death in the Dark, are out now (Thomas & Mercer). As C L Murphy for darker, twisted tales and short stories published in Ireland, UK and US. And she writes as Catherine Murphy for non-fiction, published in the Irish Times, The Times, the Guardian, TheBookseller, and many more. She first read Agatha Christie when she was eight and has been slightly disappointed by actual village life ever since. Follow her on Instagram: @kitty_murphy_writes
