NBF: Deadly Landscapes
How does setting shape suspense? Three leading crime writers explore the power of place in their work. G.D. Wright draws on his experience as a retired police officer in the tightly plotted Against the Tide. Ajay Chowdhury, award-winning creator of the Kamil Rahman series, brings a speculative edge with Eden Falls. M. J. Arlidge returns with Out of the Ashes, a gripping DI Helen Grace thriller. In conversation with Alex Hawley, this session uncovers how landscapes become characters in their own right.
