One evening, two top crime writers
Robert Goddard and JS Stock discuss the genre and their latest books in Hungerford
HUNGERFORD Bookshop has organised another great authors evening.
Two masters of the thriller are getting together for what promises to be a fascinating event in Hungerford on Monday (September 26).
Popular writers Robert Goddard and JS Monroe – the pseudonym of local author Jon Stock – will be talking about the genre and their latest books.
Goddard is a highly entertaining novelist and speaker, who engages readers with his edge-of-seat pace and labyrinthine plots.
In his latest, This is the Night
They Come for You, Supt Taleb is handed a ticking bomb of a case that takes him deep into Algeria’s troubled past and its fraught relationship with France.
He will face a choice he has long sought to avoid, between selfpreservation and doing the right thing.
JS Monroe is renowned for his impeccable research and addictive

plot twists. In The Man on Hackpen Hill, aspiring journalist Bella is on work experience at a national newspaper when she receives an anonymous letter, which merely leads her to a government scientist spouting conspiracy theories in the pub.
But then her best friend Erin is found dead in a nearby field... He will be speaking from 7pm, at the Town Hall, followed by Robert Goddard at 7.45pm, with audience questions at 8.30pm.
