Featuring: Belinda Bauer, Wiley Cash, Jonathan Freedland, Nicci French and Cath Staincliffe.\n\nIs the crime novel essentially an up-dated morality tale? The crime genre can help us contemplate some of the most important questions of our time. How can the press spend so many column inches on the tragic overdose of a Hollywood star when hundreds of drug-related deaths go unreported every year? Is murder ever justified? And where does euthanasia fit into the debate? Belinda Bauer, Wiley Cash, Jonathan Freedland, Nicci French and Cath Staincliffe chew over the rights and wrongs, with sensitivity, passion, and a dash of black humour.\n\nThe Morality Of Murder was recorded live at Harrogate International Festivals' Theakston Old Peculier Crime Writing Festival in July 2015.
