WHY READERS RETURN: Crime writer Chris McDonald joins Confessions of a Book Collector to discuss his new private investigator novel, The Wrong Man, and why readers remember how a book made them feel long after they've forgotten the plot.

Chris shares how a chance conversation on a Manchester football pitch convinced him that ordinary people could become authors, why he secretly wrote his first novel without telling anyone, and how an image of a body on an ice rink stayed in his head for a decade before becoming a book.

The Grey Areas of Truth 🗣️ Sarah Vaughan On Power & Scandal.

Bestselling author Sarah Vaughan joins David Headley on Confessions of a Book Collector to discuss power, privilege, politics, morally difficult characters and the emotional truths hidden beneath public lives…

From her years as a political journalist during the Blair era to the explosive success of Anatomy of a Scandal and its Netflix adaptation, Sarah reflects on the strange timing that turned the novel into a cultural phenomenon.

David and Sarah also explore why “nice” characters rarely make compelling fiction, the books that shaped her as a reader and writer and why she’s fascinated by characters under pressure.

This is the kind of book PREM1ER was created for. Check into The Hotel Orient by signing up for PREM1ER today.

Murder at the Hotel Orient has all the makings of a future classic: a striking setting, a magnetic protagonist, and a debut author whose star is clearly on the rise.

‘A clever and satisfying thriller in a wonderfully decadent setting. Sterling Lockwood is an unforgettable heroine’ Elly Griffiths, author of The Frozen People

Your Saturday morning listen is here! This week we’re joined by Hallie Rubenhold, bestselling author behind The Five and Story of a Murder, and a writer who has reshaped how we think about some of history’s most infamous crimes. Known for shifting the focus away from sensationalised killers and back onto the lives of overlooked victims, Hallie explores what happens when we start questioning the stories we’ve always accepted as truth....

She talks about the danger of “campfire retellings” in true crime, why history is often built on incomplete or biased perspectives, and how context can completely transform a narrative.
