Neston Library will host a new murder-mystery evening written by Ann Cleeves on Wednesday 4 November 2026.
A Day in the Death of Dorothea Cassidy gives audiences a role in examining the suspects’ accounts and deciding who is responsible. The council describes it as the world debut of a new event written especially for Cheshire West and Chester Libraries, drawing on Cleeves’s 1992 Inspector Ramsay novel.
