Literary Lunch with Harriet Tyce | Thu 23 Apr 2026 | 1:00pm – 3:00pm

Book early for this year’s two-course lunch with wine, where murder, treachery and intrigue are firmly on the menu. The Traitors star Harriet Tyce sets down her pen, picks up her fork, and serves up a criminally compelling conversation about life on both sides of the courtroom: first as a criminal barrister, now as the Sunday Times bestselling author of Blood Orange and more.

She’ll be talking about her extraordinary new novel Witch Trial – a modern-day media storm sparked by the murder of a teenage girl in Edinburgh, the arrest of her two closest friends, and a case that spirals into rumours of bullying, obsession and something far darker. As motives blur and judgement wobbles, who can be trusted – and what really happened?

Chaired by broadcaster Alex Clark.

Venue: University Arms

Duration: 2 hours
