Tata Steel Kolkata Literary Meet and Indo British Scholars Association are delighted to present a Zoom/FB session with the maestros of mystery, Alexander McCall Smith And Ian Rankin, in conversation with Debnita Chakravarti to launch the wonderfully (and chillingly!) titled essay collection: ‘The Best Murders Are British’.
From Sherlock to The Sweeney, Midsomer Murders to Marcella, Broadchurch to the Bletchley Circle, what is it about good ol’ made-in-Britain bloody killings that make for the best thrills and spine-chills?
Rankin’s Inspector Rebus will catch up with McCall Smith’s Mma Ramotswa this weekend, so be there!
