The
Deadly Dames appeared at Portsmouth BookFest at Portsmouth Central Library on
Saturday 18th February.
The Dames: Charlie Cochrane, Joan Moules, Eileen
Robertson, Nicola Slade and Carol Westron were delighted to welcome
L.C. Tyler
as their Guest Chevalier.
Departing slightly from their usual style, the panel
discussed
‘Nemesis With Knitting Needles’
- women sleuths from Victorian times
until the present day.
The debate ranged from the problems of following a
suspect whilst wearing a crinoline to 21st Century television
adaptations of classic detective stories, but no decision was reached about
whether modern detectives should take up knitting.
