Victoria Dowd and Ali Simpson - local authors visit Gumshoe Books

Anneli Meeder |

Two local authors of historical whodunnits dropped in this week to sign copies of their new books. It was a great opportunity and pleasure to chat with Victoria Dowd and Ali Simpson about books, and there will be a chance to catch them in conversation on the 10th of December in the Newton Abbot library - tickets for this event are now available.
