As we approach the next stage of Boris Johnson s roadmap out of lockdown, we take a look at which places are planning to reopen from May 17 onwards.
A Kidderminster-born poet perhaps best known for an anthology written in Black Country dialect has branched out with her first novel. And in stark contrast Lottie Caldwell has dipped into a dark and gritty world on an urban estate. Her psychological thriller Jim Bowie – the Bowie refers to the famous hunting knife which plays a key element in the story – is being launched in a live stream online at 7.30pm on Thursday (December 17). She has drawn on her long career in social care as inspiration for many of the themes in the book.
