A dangerous, long-guarded secret, a high-stakes treasure hunt through history, and a puzzle that stretches back generations – Sara Sheridan returns to the Festival with her immersive, Edinburgh-set novel, The Jewel Keepers. Join Sheridan, author of The Fair Botanists (Waterstones Scottish Book of the Year 2022), as she chats about the real historical events amid the dramatic fiction, plus what she discovered during her exclusive behind-the-scenes access to Edinburgh Castle while researching the novel. Chaired by Ashley Douglas.
The livestream for this event will also be available on demand after the event ends.
