I’ll be up in #Harrogate from Thursday through to Saturday for this year’s #theakstonscrime festival, where I’m really looking forward to chatting with Mark Billingham in the Pan Macmillan tent on Friday at 11.30am. If you’re going to be at Harrogate this year, here’s hoping we get to say hi!

Inspired by my own nightmare house viewing, this is what happens when you try to sell your house … and the person viewing it refuses to leave.

Psst … it’s a perfect day for a spot of reading in a hammock.
