7 – 9pm
Hull Central Library + livestreamed to an online audience
When 18-year-old Christian Shaw is found dead in an Edinburgh park, the city reels and the shock only deepens when police charge her best friends, Eliza Lawson and Isobel Smyth, with her murder. As social media explodes and headlines scream for justice, rumours of bullying spiral into something darker. Matthew Phillips, a respected heart surgeon, is reluctantly called for jury duty on the case. But as the trial unfolds – and the girls reveal a chilling defence no one saw coming – he begins to question everything.

Harriet Tyce talks about her new thriller with writer and Hull Noir co-founder, Nick Quantrill.
