The Write Stuff - Tea Obreht

Tea Obreht was born in Belgrade in 1985 and graduated from the University of Southern California after emigrating to the U.S. She was named by The New Yorker as one of the twenty best American fiction writers under forty. Her award winning first novel The Tiger's Wife was published in 2010. The library has just acquired her second novel Inland. Set in drought-stricken, lawless Arizona in 1893, it tells the story of Nora and Lurie. Nora is waiting for the return of the men in her life, and Lurie is a former outlaw who sets off on a momentous expedition across the west. Obreht lives in New York with her husband and teaches at Hunter College. To visit her online visit here.

Hudson Box Office (HBO) - Manhunt

Manhunt is a British true-crime drama series based on the memoirs of DCI Sutton, in a case that captivated the UK. When a young French woman is murdered in London, the investigation yields no forensics, motive or witnesses. But when Sutton connects the crime to two other murders, he realises he must hunt down a serial killer. Martin Clunes is a revelation as Sutton (completely different from Doc Martin!) The library has just acquired the DVD of this excellent series. For more details click here

Murder Ink - Ann Cleeves

The first in a brand new series from Ann Cleeves, bestselling and award-winning author of the Vera and Shetland series, The Long Call is set in North Devon, where Ann grew up. The Two Rivers series features a new detective, the reserved and complex Detective Inspector Matthew Venn.  Estranged from the strict evangelical community in which he grew up, and from his own family, DI Venn is drawn back by murder into the community he thought he had left behind.

The screen rights to The Long Call have already been optioned by Silverprint Pictures, the company that produced Shetland (BBC) and Vera (ITV).
