Aye Write 2025: Denise Mina and Helen Fields in conversation with Bryan Burnett
Saturday November 15, 2025, 4.15 p.m.
Royal Concert Hall, 2 Killermont St, Glasgow G2 3NW
BBC Scotland’s Bryan Burnett is joined by two crime writers extraordinaire as they peel back the layers of a good mystery.
Described as “crime-writing royalty” by none other than Ian Rankin, Denise Mina draws us into the world of blood spatter expert Dr Claudia O’Sheil in the gripping The Good Liar. Claudia’s evidence put a killer behind bars — or so everyone thinks. Since the trial, Claudia has learned the horrific truth: her evidence and testimony were wrong. Now she has to choose: keep lying and leave the wrong killer locked up, or tell the truth and rip her life apart.
Meanwhile, the million-copy international best-seller Helen Fields’ latest book, Watching You, is a twisty, captivating page-turner. As more and more bodies surface in Edinburgh, DS Lively and forensic profiler Dr Connie Woolwine know they’re dealing with a serial killer. Could renowned surgeon and grieving mother, Beth Waterfall, be the next victim?
