We are very sorry to announce that due to personal circumstances and the rising costs of staging a festival, there will be no Lyme Crime in 2024. We hope to stage one-off events, and return in future years with a full programme, so please stay tuned. Thanks for all your support x

@AmenAlonge Congratulations, Amen!

Take a bow, @CrimeLyme, especially festival director @PaddyMagrane.
