In a practical workshop for budding crime writers, Dr Rachel Crossley, a Science and Engineering Ambassador from Stemnet, will highlight some of the basic scientific methods often used in analysis of evidence found at a Crime Scene. She will then be joined by leading crime writers Barbara Nadel and Chris Simms who will be discussing their latest works and research methods. The discussion will be chaired by local crime fiction aficionado Jude Davies. Barbara Nadel is the author of two series of novels, one featuring the Turkish detective, Cetin Ikmen, and the other featuring London undertaker Francis Hancock. She received the Crime Writers' Association Silver Dagger Award for her novel Deadly Web in 2005. Chris Simms is the author of six acclaimed novels the last four of which are set in Manchester.
