Hay Festival: Rob Rinder

Rob Rinder takes us into the world of his latest crime novel, set in the glamorous world of art. At a star-studded opening night for the Royal Academys celebration of renowned artist Max Bruce, the occasion takes a shocking turn when a protester runs from the crowd and sprays the artist with blue paint. Max collapses and it soon turns out that the paint was laced with cyanide. Newly qualified barrister Adam Green is assigned the impossible task of defending the protestor, but it seems there may have been others who wanted Max dead. Rinder is a barrister turned broadcaster and author. He started his broadcast career with Judge Rinder, and is now a regular host on ITVs Good Morning Britain. His novels The Trial and The Suspect are inspired by his experiences as a barrister.
