Will and Rosie meet as teenagers. They’re opposites in every way.

She overthinks everything; he is her twin brother’s wild and unpredictable friend. But over secret walks home and late-night phone calls, they become closer – destined to be one another’s great love story. Until, one day, tragedy strikes, and their future together is shattered.

But as the years roll on, Will and Rosie can’t help but find their way back to each other. Time and again, they come close to rekindling what might have been. What do you do when the one person you should forget is the one you just can’t let go?

Join authors Claire Daverley and Kate Sawyer for an exciting evening, discussing Claire’s tender debut novel, ‘Talking at Night.’

About Claire Daverley

Claire Daverley was born in 1991 and has been writing stories ever since she was six years old, inspired by art and film and her many trips to the library. After graduating with a degree in Fine Art from The University of Oxford, she began a career in publishing, writing about books by day but penning her own by night, on trains, and in the light of the early mornings. She has spent most of her life in Hertfordshire, but now lives in Scotland with her husband and spaniel.

Her debut novel,Talking at Night, has sold in twenty-two languages to date.

After twenty years living in London, she recently returned to her native East Anglia, where she lives with her young daughter.
