In Conversation with Lee Child

Saturday, 7 February 2026 @ 7:30pm
In Conversation with Lee Child - Saturday 7 February 2026

Best-selling author Lee Child returns to the town where he penned the first three novels in his internationally renowned ‘Jack Reacher’ thriller series.

Lee will talk with local debut author Rachel Canwell (Paper Sisters) about his life and work – and what’s in store for his hero now he’s no longer wielding the pen.

Lee’s talk will be followed by a book-signing session. Valerie Laycock from the Book Lounge will have a selection of books available for purchase but feel free to bring a favourite book from home (just one each, though, please).

Please note expect this event to be a sell-out. Passholders should book their free ticket to ensure entry as we cannot admit people on the door if the venue is full! If you have booked a ticket and find you cannot attend, please let us know so we can release a ticket to someone on the waiting list.
