Who really killed the princes in the tower? Was Richard III truly the ogre of legend and Shakespeare’s play. – a wicked uncle who murdered his nephews to steal the crown of England? Inspector Alan Grant is not so sure. Laid up in hospital with a broken leg, he becomes obsessed with unravelling this most enduring of historical mysteries.

As he investigates with the help of an enthusiastic young American scholar, he unearths long-buried intrigues and comes to a startling conclusion.

The discussion will be led by Sally


BOOK CLUB: The Seventh Son – Sebastian Faulks

Wednesday 13th November – 7:15 for :7:30pm

A child will be born who will change everything… Tech billionaire Lukas Parn has an ambitious plan. Behind the doors of the IVF clinic in his London institute, a daring switch is made. Young academic Talissa Adam believes she is simply carrying a child for a grateful family, but the baby inside her is different from any living human.

The boy, Seth, grows up unaware, though his parents note that he’s different: he can’t make plans, is unaware of danger and seems to have at least one extra sense. But as Seth becomes a man, the truth about him is revealed and the world starts to hunt him down.

The discussion will be led by Tim
