Author event for lovers of pacy thrillers and Arctic adventure

The next fiction event at Oundle Festival of Literature features author Harry Whitehead on the release of his eco-thriller, White Road. 

Expect geo-political discussions around oil and its excavation in the Arctic, the motivations for those involved in ecotage (sabotage carried out for ecological reasons), the polar landscape and survival in those conditions and how to blow up an oil rig - all things Harry researched when writing this book.

White Road is Harry's second published thriller, and he's also Associate Professor of Creative Writing at the University of Leicester where he runs their literary festival. 

Harry lived in the Far East for a number of years returning to the UK to work in the film industry as an assistant director, location manager (which took him all around the world) and, latterly, a story consultant with film directors including Ridley Scott, Tony Gilroy, Spike Lee and Roman Polanski.
