We are heading straight into our 2025 events programme and bringing you an evening with one of Truman Books best selling authors of 2024, the talented Emilia Hart. Emilia’s debut novel Weyward has sold over 500,000 copies worldwide, including 200k in the UK. Her second novel ‘The Sirens,’ due for release on 13 February, is already receiving amazing reviews. Emilia will be in conversation with historical fiction bestselling author Jennifer Saint, writer of mythological novels Ariadne, Elektra and Hera.

Lucy is running from what she’s done – and what someone did to her. There’s only one person who might understand: her sister Jess. But when Lucy arrives at her sister’s desolate cliff-top house, Jess is gone.
Lucy is now alone, in a strange town steeped in rumour. Stories of men disappearing without a trace. A foundling discovered in a sea-swept cave. And women’s voices murmuring on the waves… As Lucy searches for her sister, those voices get ever louder. They tell of two sisters, two centuries ago, bound and transported across the world. A world where men always get their way. A world that is at once distant, and achingly familiar.  Are these voices luring Lucy closer to her sister? Or will the secrets of the past pull them both under?

This event will be held at the Old Woollen, providing the perfect ambiance for an intimate gathering of book lovers. Don’t miss this opportunity to meet one of Truman Books most loved authors and connect with fellow fans, as well as being one of the first to get your hands on a copy of ‘The Sirens’.
Doors open 7pm event starts 8pm
