It's Day 23 of #BookAdventCalendar and it's The Glass Maker by Tracy Chevalier - Venice, 1486. Across the lagoon lies Murano. Time flows differently here – like the glass the island’s maestros spend their lives learning to handle. #YuleLoveIt

Some more #ReadingHour crime now with local author Trevor Wood and The Silent Killer. DCI Jack Parker has faced tough cases but now a serial killer stalks the streets of Newcastle, one of his closest colleagues is dead and he's got early onset dementia - really gripping!
