Authors Ian Rankin, Iain M Banks and Quintin Jardine are set to attend the second Lennoxlove Book Festival.

The three-day festival is set to be held at Lennoxlove House, near Haddington, from November 19 to 21.

After the success of last year's inaugural event, the festival has quadrupled the size of its programme, adding an extra full day and two new marquees. The organisers are hoping the event will attract all age groups.

Actor Tom Conti and former Labour spin doctor Alastair Campbell are also due to appear.
