The north’s biggest book club is back. For the 15th Big Read, Harrogate International Festivals is touring libraries across the north with The Whisper Man by Leeds-based author, Alex North, a Sunday Times bestseller and now a Netflix film starring Robert De Niro.

Pick up a free copy at the library, then join our Reader in Residence, bestselling author Julie Mae Cohen, for a relaxed one-hour conversation about the book. Whether you are a book club regular or have never been to a book event, you are very welcome.

The Whisper Man is a crime thriller which explores themes including child abduction, loss and bereavement.

This event at Knaresborough Library will take place in the Library Meeting Room.

Dr Julie Cohen’s award-winning, bestselling novels have sold over a million copies worldwide. She holds a PhD in Creative Writing and Publishing and is a popular teacher of creative writing. Her latest novel, written as Julie Mae Cohen, is THE BEST OF ENEMIES.
