- **Event Name**: Philippa Perry: When Psychology Meets Murder
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 13 Nov, 2026 at 07:00 pm (+00:00)
- **Event Description**: How well do we ever really know the people around us?

For decades, Philippa Perry has helped millions of readers better understand themselves and their relationships. Psychotherapist, broadcaster, artist and bestselling author of The Book You Wish Your Parents Had Read, she has become one of Britain’s most trusted and influential voices on family life, emotional wellbeing and what makes us tick.

Now she turns her attention to murder. In her debut novel, Shrink Solves Murder, a psychotherapist becomes an amateur detective after the death of a patient raises troubling questions. Drawing on her deep understanding of human behaviour, Perry creates a mystery full of secrets, hidden motives and psychological intrigue.

In this event, she’ll discuss the appeal of crime fiction, the stories we tell ourselves, and what drives us to deceive one another. Along the way, she’ll explore the connections between therapy and detective work, revealing why understanding human nature may be the key to solving a crime.
