Crime, Coffee and Cake with BD Spargo

Join us for the first of our Crime, Coffee and Cake events as part of Crime Reading Month.Enjoy coffee (or tea) and cake with BD Spargo - crime author of DCI Liam Doyle Lancashire crime thrillers 'Cut Short' and 'Witch Hunt'.Fast approaching 50; without enough money for a sports car, BD Spargo decided to express his mid-life crisis by turning to crime... thankfully, for pretty much everyone, this meant writing crime fiction rather than anything more nefarious.Originally from London, he spent his early career working on television and theatre productions including the Ruth Rendall Mysteries.A life changing accident necessitated a change of direction going on to work in mental health services.

This culminated in ten years managing a ground breaking forensic psychiatric service.Chat to him about his experiences as a crime writer, career changes and getting used to the rain in Lancashire.
