Rebus: Long Shadows: The New Play

Ian Rankin
Books and WineBooks and Wine

Your favourite detective Rebus returns in a sectarian shitshow against a backdrop of the Edinburgh Festival. Gritty, grimy, and everything you need from the page-turningly brilliant Ian Rankin (hope that drink in the Oxford is still waiting for me!) @Beathhigh #MortalCauses https://t.co/pnKR490Pzx

The Sacred Fount: Novel

Henry James
Books and WineBooks and Wine

I do enjoy a book about writing books. Imagine finishing a novel about a famous author only to discover another esteemed writer has just done the same thing! Why the sudden popular interest in Henry James? Rather spooky, possums #DavidLodge #TheYearOfHenryJames https://t.co/4kYOlBT0Yx

A Spy Among Friends: Kim Philby and the Great Betrayal

Ben MacIntyre
Books and WineBooks and Wine

From ace spy writer @BenMacintyre1, another stellar tale of subterfuge, loyalty, Soviet espionage and deception. Two best friends, going back years, one a double agent selling British secrets to Moscow. A dangerous game of MI6 and KGB spooks and a cracking story #ASpyAmongFriends https://t.co/V63os81bfZ

The Slap

Christos Tsiolkas

@LoreleiLiBan Hmmm good question! Straight off the top of my head… Christos Tsiolkas’ ‘The Slap’ (Australian TV series) or Paul Torday’s ‘Salmon Fishing in the Yemen’ (film).

Wolf Pack

Will Dean
Books and WineBooks and Wine

The perfect set up: wine, snacks and @willrdean. On Tuva Moodyson’s radar is a missing girl and a curious compound. Waco wackos or pragmatic survivalists? Get ready for the PLOT TO THICKEN. He may be British but his scandi-noir novels are top notch. I recommend them all #WolfPack https://t.co/7zjnkY1gSx
