About this event
Sarah Pearse: Opening Author Event Local author Sarah Pearse has taken the literary world by storm. Her debut novel ‘The Sanatorium’ reached No1 on The Sunday Times bestseller list and the subsequent two thrillers in the trilogy, ‘The Retreat’, and ‘The Wilds’, have now sold well over 1.5 million copies together. It is fitting that a former Torquay Girls Grammar school pupil should be the festival’s first ever author. As well as talking about her books, we will explore Sarah’s writing process and what has helped her succeed as a novelist. You can e-mail Sarah questions in advance of the event to and she will be signing copies of all her books at the end.
