Join Village Books and Alleyn’s School Enterprises for an evening with bestselling author Ann Cleeves.
Detective Matthew Venn (featured in ITV’s The Long Call) returns in The Raging Storm, the next captivating novel in the Two Rivers series.
When Jem Rosco – sailor, adventurer and local legend – blows into town in the middle of an autumn gale, the residents of Greystone, Devon, are delighted to have a celebrity in their midst. However, when a lifeboat is called out during a raging storm, Rosco’s body is found in a dinghy, anchored off Scully Cove.
DI Matthew Venn came to the remote village as a child, its community populated by the Barum Brethren that he parted ways with, so when superstition and rumour mix and another body is found in the cove, Matthew soon finds his judgement clouded. As the stormy winds howl and the village is cut off, Venn and his team start their investigation, little realizing their own lives might be in danger. . .
Ann Cleeves is the author of more than thirty-five critically acclaimed novels. She is the creator of popular detectives Vera Stanhope, Jimmy Perez and Matthew Venn, who can be found on television in ITV’s Vera, BBC One’s Shetland and ITV’s The Long Call respectively. The TV series and the books they are based on have become international sensations, capturing the minds of millions worldwide.
