Tips and Resources From Your Ann Cleeves Book Club Friends:

Ann Cleeves says that small enclosed communities work well with the traditional dramas that she writes. “I enjoy exploring secrets. On small islands privacy is important, and there are secrets that everyone can guess but nobody talks about.” But it’s the opposite here. Feel free to join and share what you really think about Vera Stanhope, Jimmy Perez, Matthew Venn and Ann’s other detectives to your heart’s content.

“We don’t often notice the people who look after us, do we? Though we’d miss them if they weren’t there.”

Ann Cleeves, Harbour Street

“Vera is cantankerous, out of shape, anti-social, dowdy but also whip smart – she’s just great fun to read. Plus the books just make me want to visit Northumberland.”
