An Evening with Lisa Jewell and Andrea Mara

About this event
From thrilling plots and unexpected twists to deeply complex characters, join Dublin Book Festival for an evening with bestselling authors Lisa Jewell and Andrea Mara as we delve into the dark and gripping worlds of their latest psychological thrillers. Jewell's It Could Have Been Her sees protagonist Jane return to a house she was in 25 years earlier, but that house holds secrets more terrifying than she could ever have imagined. In Mara's Such a Nice Girl, a getaway to a luxury wedding turns dark when two best friends wake to find their daughters missing and a shocking scene left behind. As they must work together to unravel the mystery, could it be that one daughter is a victim... and the other a killer?
This is an 18+ event.
