Twenty-five years later his body is recovered from the sea, three days after he was last seen by anyone. Was this the tragic result of yet another publicity stunt? Or had Brangley been pushed from the battlements of his home, Pengawnen Castle?We are especially pleased to be welcoming as our special guests Clifford Witting's granddaughter, Amanda Patton, who will be giving a talk about her grandfather's work, and classic crime fiction researcher, reviewer and blogger Ronaldo Fagarazzi, who will provide further insights.Tickets are £6 each and include a glass of wine or soft alternative.
