About TOPCWF26 Special Guests: LJ Ross & Jane Harper - Old Swan Hotel

Meet two natural storytellers with a gift for using remote and atmospheric locations - Northumberland and smalltown Australia - to spin beguiling stories of murder and mystery.

LJ Ross’ phenomenal career began with a self-published novel which sold 25 copies on day one; now, 30 Amazon number ones and eleven years later, Louise has sold over 12 million books. In Berwick, the latest in her much-loved DCI Ryan series, the detective must prove his wife innocent of murder. Manchester-born Jane Harper has become the undisputed queen of rural Australian noir with a string of highly acclaimed novels. The Dry was an international smash and was adapted into a major film, as was Force of Nature. The Survivors also reached Netflix’s global top ten list in 2025. Interviewed by journalist Gaby Huddart.
