ESSEX BOOK FESTIVAL HIGHLIGHTS - ELIZABETH HAYNES - A GREAT CRIME WRITER

Elizabeth Haynes star writer of the evening at Billericay Library

This 20th Essex Book Festival is almost half-way through its annual exciting journey and so far, readers have packed out the events around the county. Tonight, we even entertained Look East Television team at Billericay and our guest was worth the wait. She was Elizabeth Haynes whose new novel THE MURDER OF HARRIET MONCKTON is proving to be another best seller in this psychological crime genre, certainly judging by the applause of her large audience at Billericay Library. 

Among the audience, I found a good half dozen keen readers from their group based in our neighbouring town of Brentwood and here they are pictured with our star of the evening, Elizabeth.  It was also great to catch up with news from our own special Billericay team of readers in a relaxed atmosphere. Could have stayed all night!  Details of next meeting will come up on Phoenix 98fm radio show on 28 March when our guest writer will be Wendy Pike.In the meantime, do check out www.essexbookfestival.org.uk and order tickets for events near you - for information and bookings call Mercury Theatre, Colchester, Essex  01206 573948
