Join us in discussion with debut novelist, Natalie Marlow, who has created a gritty private detective embroiled in the seedier aspects of society. Needless Alley is a crime noir that brings 1930s Birmingham to life in all its dark glory. It is the first in a new series of detective novels and introduces us to a cast that are impossible to forget. For those familiar with Birmingham, there are locations you will recognise - alongside characters you wouldn’t want to meet in a dark alley!

Natalie Marlow is an historical novelist with a fascination for the people and landscapes of the Midlands. Much of her writing takes inspiration from the stories her grandparents told.
