Based in Clitheroe, Lancashire, Number 10 is one of only two independent bookshops in the UK specialising in contemporary and classic crime and thriller fiction, together with true crime. We opened in June 2019 and the owner Zoë Channing is passionate about crime fiction, losing herself in a book every day, not hearing requests from family and dogs for food, walks or conversation!

Number 10 stocks novels by UK, USA, and Scandi authors as well as developing a collection of crime fiction by authors from around the world.

Zoë is always on the lookout for obscure, newly translated murder mysteries so check out her recommendations! 

Number 10 also stocks books for babies, children and young adults and can order any book for you, not just crime!

Number 10 is developing quite a thing for cycling and walking books, maps, guides and gifts
