About this event

Portobello Books event chaired by Nicola Sturgeon

We are absolutely delighted to be hosting Val McDermid’s Edinburgh launch of the latest Karen Pirie thriller, Silent Bones. Join us in welcoming the Quine of Crime to the Assembly Roxy for an evening event that’s set to be as thrillingly entertaining as McDermid’s novels, as she will be in conversation with Nicola Sturgeon. Both Val and Nicola have always been hugely supportive of our shop, and indeed indie bookshops generally, and we’re really looking forward to a special evening to celebrate Val’s latest book.

Doors due to open at 6.45pm.

This event will take place at the Assembly Roxy, 2 Roxburgh Place. There will be a book signing following the event.
