The Newcastle Writers’ Festival has announced best-selling crime fiction author Michael Robotham has had to withdraw for personal reasons from this year's events in Newcastle and Cessnock.  

Here in Cessnock, Secrets and Lies: an evening with Michael Robotham was due to be held at the Cessnock Performing Arts Centre on Saturday 7 April 2018 and has been hugely popular in the community.  

Newcastle Writers’ Festival Director, Rosemarie Milsom said, ‘While it was disappointing news for his many fans, there is a possibility Robotham will revisit the region after the release of his new book at the end of June.”  

For those who have purchased tickets, the team at the Cessnock Performing Arts Centre will be in touch shortly to arrange refunds and apologise for any inconvenience caused.
