DUE to travel chaos at Heathrow Airport, bestselling author John Niven will be unable to make it to his scheduled event at Carlisle's Bookends this evening.

Ticket holders are being contacted and refunded as a result.

However, there is a silver lining - John will still be participating in a live chat with Bookends via Zoom at 7pm tonight.

The event is now free and open to all.

Interested individuals can reach out to bookscumbria@aol.com or message Bookends on Facebook.
