In partnership with Cityreads, Audible is taking over the Foyles gallery with an unmissable event for book lovers.
Those who have read Gilian Slovo's Ten Days will be treated to a pop-up installation where they will be able to review evidence from the crime scenes that happen in the first 72 hours of the novel. To further engage readers and listeners, the event makes it possible for visitors to gather items and place them on a central control panel in order to unlock clips of the audiobook version.
As part of the Cityreads event, 5,000 copies of the book will be made available to local libraries and prisons. To expand upon this, 100 special-edition books are being given away to real-world locations that are linked to the contents of the book.
