All last week, I enjoyed listening to a crime play that was serialized [in five parts] on
BBC radio 4’s Woman’ Hour. It was written by broadcaster, novelist, crime-fiction enthusiast and last years winning team-captain of the
Harrogate Crime Fiction Festival’s annual quiz –
Mark Lawson. As Lawson is an advocate of crime fiction as well as a regular attendee at Harrogate – there is a knowingness about the proceedings; with the Harrogate event providing a backdrop in key scenes.
The serial was broadcast last week [Monday 9 - Friday 13 February] but can be listened to online
here for one week only, but you should not tarry.
Reading Between the Lines By Mark Lawson
When a celebrated writer, RP Beckford-Jones, leaves clues in his final novel implying that his recently deceased wife was murdered, DCI Kate Duncan is forced to look more carefully at the incriminating text.
