In a rundown Memphis bar, Marcia – a washed-up Vegas showgirl – works double shifts and reflects on her single doomed shot at happiness, while her customers tell the stories of their own troubled lives. This will be an evening of stories…tales of love, loss and murder!

‘Country romanticism and hard-boiled crime come together in a story that perfectly emphasizes the drama contained within the music.’

The story is written and narrated by bestselling crime author Mark Billingham, whose Detective Thorne series has been adapted for TV starring David Morrissey.  The tales are sound tracked by the fantastic My Darling Clementine, the internationally acclaimed Americana duo whose powerful and poignant songs echo the best of country music duos through their close harmonies and musical skill.

“Where literature and music collide is a perfect wrap for this latest project by top selling crime fiction writer Mark Billingham and the UK’s premier act for keeping the flame of classic country alive My Darling Clementine”. Threechordsandthetruthuk
