ENGLISH actor Richard Armitage is coming to Birkenhead to discuss his first novel.
The 51-year-old has appeared in dozens of well-known movies and TV shows. Some include North & South (2004), The Hobbit trilogy (2012-2014), The Stranger and most recently, Netflic series, Obsession.
Richard has more recently joined the literary world with his debut novel Geneva, which was published in February.
The book tells the story of Nobel Prize-winning scientist Sarah Collier who has started to show the same telltale signs of Alzheimer’s disease as her father.
She is reluctant to accept the invitation to be the guest of honour at a prestigious biotech conference – until her husband, Daniel, also a neuroscientist, persuades her that the publicity storm will be worth it.
The technology being unveiled at this conference could revolutionise medicine forever and it could save Sarah’s life.
Richard will visit Birkenhead School, Bidston Road, Oxton on Monday, October 9 at 7pm.
