Men’s Shed Govan is delighted to announce the second in its series of ‘Author Talks’ exclusive to Shedders in Scotland.

This not-to-be-missed event, on Wednesday 9th June 2021 from 7-8pm, features leading Scottish crime fiction author – Craig Robertson. A former journalist, Craig worked on The Sunday Post before becoming a full-time author. He reported on major stories including 9/11, Dunblane, the Omagh bombing and the disappearance of Madeleine McCann. He beat Oprah Winfrey to a major scoop, spent time on Death Row in the USA and dispensed polio drops in the backstreets of India.

His gritty crime novels are set on the mean streets of contemporary Glasgow. His first novel, Random, was shortlisted for the 2010 CWA New Blood Dagger, longlisted for the 2011 Crime Novel of the Year and was a Sunday Times bestseller. Murderabilia was longlisted for the 2017 Crime Novel of the Year and shortlisted for the McIlvanney Prize.
