Book Salon with William Boyd
Join us at Charlotte Street Hotel for a special evening with acclaimed novelist William Boyd, celebrating the publication of Cold Sunset, the gripping third novel in his Cold War espionage series.
William will be in conversation with journalist and author Kate Maxwell, discussing his latest novel, which follows accidental spy Gabriel Dax as he delivers a mysterious drawing to a renowned defector, only to receive an unexpected request.
Look forward to an evening of compelling conversation as William shares the inspiration behind his new book and touches on the surrounding themes: the fine line between devotion and deception and shifting loyalties.
Following the discussion, there will be an opportunity for audience questions and a book signing by William. Cold Sunset will also be available for purchase from BookBar on the evening.
Extend your evening with a two-course dinner at Oscar, accompanied by a glass of wine, before or after the Book Salon. The special dinner and Book Salon package is available for £55 per person.
About Cold Sunset
Gabriel Dax is en route to Russia, tasked with delivering a mysterious Blanco drawing to celebrated defector Kit Caldwell. But Caldwell is convinced that the KGB suspects him of treachery and wants to get out – now.
When Gabriel is ordered by his enigmatic handler, Faith Green, to help, he is pulled into a web of shifting loyalties and dangerous escape plans. As tensions rise and trust fractures, he is forced to confront the fine line between devotion and deception.
But which will he choose?
