No Other Darkness

Have to share this terrific new US review, by Michael Leonard (thanks, Michael!) over at Curled Up With a Good Book.

"No Other Darkness is a fabulous find, her police procedural as compelling as the very best of British thrillers."

Marnie Rome on tour

Well, not quite. But two local events where I'm reading from Someone Else's Skin and No Other Darkness. The first is in Bath on 17 October, with Paul McVeigh & Tania Hershman, two writers I hugely admire. The second is in Bristol on 24 October for the closing celebrations of the Bristol Festival of Literature. I'll be chatting about crime writing and winning the Theakstons Crime Novel of the Year. Do come if you can.

In other news, I've opened the doors to entries for Crimefest's 2016 Flashbang Contest in which you can win places on their Crime Writing Day and other goodies. So sharpen your quills for 150 words of flash fiction.
