I honestly didn't know if I could ever write a crime novel when I started Dangerous, but I loved every moment and this review is the cherry on the cake: My thanks to To the Max: New Crime with Maxim Jakubowski. @CrimeTimeUK

Musk, the meddling meglomaniac who wants to rule the world, has driven me away again. I loved this platform for the friends, the fun, and amazing knowledge it's brought over the years, but now it's full of toxic fascism and mind manipulation. Sadly, waving from other platforms...

An excellent novel…
Just 2 weeks to publication of the beautiful blue paperback of #TheBlackbirdsofStGiles on Sept 25th. The story of siblings who escape the horrors of a Jamaican sugar plantation only to find that Georgian London hides another form of bondage. A timely read for #blackhistorymonth?

500 years ago, Vittore Carpaccio painted 2 scenes of life in Venice. One (at L) ended up in a junk shop. The other (at R) was praised as the world’s most wonderful painting. But weirdly, it turns out they’re actually two halves of the one painting (far R) https://t.co/JksY9maanv

Excited for this - a house where an admirer of King James, who was no stranger to making witchcraft accusations himself, lived!
Just a week until historian @stevenveerapen joins us to talk about his new book (out now via @BirlinnBooks) on James VI & I and witches. This special event in one of Glasgow's oldest buildings on 13 September includes a talk, book signing and tea/coffee. https://t.co/skZUCoTQfF
