The incredible David Baldacci is coming to Penarth! Join us for a special evening in the company of the former US trial lawyer turned international bestselling author. David will be chatting to bookshop owner Mel Griffin about his thrilling new series featuring compelling anti-hero Walter Nash, which began with Nash Falls and continues this spring with Hope Rises.

Meet Walter Nash:
An ordinary family man thrown into a dangerous underworld. Once upon a time, Walter Nash was a mild-mannered, hard-working, happy man. Minding his own business, looking after his family. Everything changed when the FBI revealed his company as a criminal empire and enlisted him in a daring mission to dismantle it. Driven by justice and revenge, Nash was forced to dive into a very dark world. One that shattered his life. Underestimate Water Nash at your peril, because a man who has lost everything is capable of anything. Walter Nash isn’t the man he used to be. But when everything crumbles, hope rises…

David Baldacci is an award-winning global #1 bestselling author, and one of the world’s favourite thriller writers.
