The Story Behind Thai Die - Season 1
The Story Behind My Stories Podcast
Welcome to The story behind My stories —the video podcast where crime fiction meets authentic experience. I will guide you through the tangled web of my crime fiction stories and my real life experiences in off the path locations.
Readers of my crime fiction novels tell me 'It feels like I'm there', 'The places and spaces feel authentic'. That's because they are.
In season 1 I will share how I ended up in Thailand and why I chose there to set DI Goodwin's first investigations around the world.
l will share the real-life inspirations and intimate stories that shaped each of my novels. You'll discover how everyday encounters, secretive motivation, and travelled journeys translate into tales as gripping as they are genuine.
