Chris Brookmyre: Thirty, and Counting

Chris Brookmyre’s offbeat brand of Scottish crime has been selling by the millions since his debut in 1996. He joins us now with his 30th novel, The Cracked Mirror, a deeply unusual detective caper that splices the tweedy with the hardboiled. With Denise Mina, Brookmyre will discuss his unquenchable desire to push the limits of genre, and look back over his life in writing – and perhaps even his occasional football punditry and noir-ish cover band! You can also expect a special sneak peek of his next Jack Parlabane novel.
