Murder Mystery Event

Save the date for our Murder Mystery Event, co-sponsored by the Friends and the Library.

Come join us to solve a murder!

On February 1 from 3:30 to 5 p.m., enjoy an afternoon of witness statements, forensic reports and, of course, guessing whodunnit co-sponsored by the Friends and the Key West Library. Prizes will be awarded to audience members closest to solving the murder and copies of Cleeves’ books will be available to purchase. Refreshments suitable for a Shetland tea will be served.

“Blood on the Bannocks” is based on Cleeves’ novel, Cold Earth, and was written as part of her 30th book celebration.  Cleeves says, “I am so lucky to have been supported by so many passionate librarians and booksellers in my 30 years as an author, writing this murder mystery script is my small way of saying thank you, and I hope everyone has fun trying to unravel the mystery!”

With over 1.5 million copies sold worldwide, Cleeves is one of Britain’s most successful crime fiction novelists. Her bestselling books are loved in print and on screen: both the Vera Stanhope and Shetland series are now major TV adaptations on ITV and BBC One respectively.

This event is free but will require registration. Registration will open January 1.
