The Cambridge Literary Festival features an interview with Lynda La Plante on 22 November 2026. The event takes place at the TTP Stage within the Cambridge Union Building. Tickets are priced at £17 for general admission and £12 for concessions.
Why not join Sue and Ros for this rare in-person interview with Queen of Crime **Lynda La Plante**, author of such hugely popular hits as *Prime Suspect*, *Above Suspicion* and *Widows*. In her ninth decade, the astonishing Bafta- and Emmy-award-winning writer shows no sign of slowing down. She makes her Festival debut here with *Sudden Death*, her first standalone novel in over a decade. Set in Paris, it’s a mystery involving faded aristocracy and deadly family secrets, generational trauma and lost treasure. The discussion is chaired by broadcaster Mark Lawson. Please book your tickets (price £17; concessions £12) via the Cambridge Literary Festival website: https://www.cambridgeliteraryfestival.com/events/lynda-la-plante-queen-of-crime/ Venue: TTP Stage, Cambridge Union Building
