About the Event

Gritstone is the Gothic new novel from Alan Newcombe: Mike’s life has become directionless and when he walks out of a marriage in freefall, he has nothing left to lose. He’s headed to Gritstone House, a closed community in the Calder Valley, dominated by the galvanic personality of this old friend Al. He’s been invited to Al’s wedding but stays to see the community implode in hysterical violence – and a group of well-meaning people become murderers...


Drop by for a reading, which will be followed by a music event incorporating the words of the novel with improvised music. We will have complimentary wine and the chance to buy the book at a discounted price of £10.


This is guaranteed to be unlike any other book event you have been to before!
