You can find Carter Wilson at his website www.carterwilson.com or on IG @carterwilsonauthor. You can also find his podcast Making It Up on all podcast platforms. This week we chat with Carter Wilson, a thriller writer and podcast host who lives in Colorado and who is the author of nine novels.

This is a road trip/ scavenger hunt thrill ride that even has a few Stranger Things vibes. It's set in the 1980s after all. Carter talks to us about why this book is different from all his others and his favorite TV thriller series he has watched this year.

Special Edition: SARAH MOORHEAD chats to STUART TURTON about his new high concept thriller THE LAST MURDER AT THE END OF THE WORLD, write what you know - rubbish, writing is unique to every person - don't box us in. THE LAST MURDER AT THE END OF THE WORLD Outside the island there is nothing: the world destroyed by a fog that swept the planet, killing anyone it touched. On the island: it is idyllic. 122 villagers and 3 scientists, living in peaceful harmony. The villagers are content to fish, farm and feast, to obey their nightly curfew, to do what they're told by the scientists.Until, to the horror of the islanders, one of their beloved scientists is found brutally stabbed to death. And they learn the murder has triggered a lowering of the security system around the island, the only thing that was keeping the fog at bay.If the murder isn't solved within 107 hours, the fog will smother the island - and everyone on it.But the security system has also wiped everyone's memories of exactly what happened the night before, which means that someone on the island is a murderer - and they don't even know it.Stuart Turton's debut novel, The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, won the Costa First Novel Award and the Books Are My Bag Readers Award for Best Novel, and was shortlisted for the Specsavers National Book Awards and the British Book Awards Debut of the Year.

Hello again! This week we're having a chat with Stuart Turton, author of "The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle" and "The Devil and the Dark Water". We also try to give some worthwhile feedback on work that one of our listeners has kindly sent in to us.
THE 7 ½ DEATHS OF EVELYN HARDCASTLE by Stuart Turton This murder mystery dances with the premise of Groundhog Day by purposely changing the character perspective every day. Because the audience is continuously off balance, the thrill is heightened & the mystery's captivation is strong. What we find leads us through a gruesome redemption story. But perhaps, we are left with more questions than answers? Want to stay in touch?

Amity Gaige is our featured author this week - her latest book is Sea Wife. But when we say latest - it's been out for almost three years. With apologies, we just discovered it. Shame on us. It's a book about a couple struggling with marital problems who decide (well the husband decides) to buy a sailboat and head for open waters. His wife isn't crazy about the idea of sailing around the world so they settle on the Caribbean. That proves to be difficult enough. Amity makes marvelous use of foreshadowing. The wife Juliet is writing her remembrances of the sail. Her husband Michael is heard through his log book of the sail. Why? Well that's part of the mystery incorporated in a good sea yarn. Our bookstore this week is a good one. Book Ends in Winchester, MA under new ownership -- Lauren Tiedemann and Jillian Hartline.

British author of the bestselling mysteries The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle and Devil and the Dark Water, Stuart Turton knows a thing about crafting a twisted tale. But did you know he's a major Agatha Christie fan? We discuss his favorite Christie book, And Then There Were None, which he calls "one of only two perfect books ever written." Stuart talks about why he comes back to Christie books again and again, and how his own work is influenced by her.Content warning: There is a brief mention of suicide as part of the plot of this book.

This week's episode is for true crime enthusiasts. Every city has had murders that make the news, and Louisville is no different. Our guest this week, David Domine', adopted Louisville as his hometown and has a following here as an author, tour guide, and storyteller in the city. He has written a new book called A DARK ROOM IN GLITTER BALL CITY about a sensational murder that was discovered after a domestic disturbance in Old Louisville in 2010. The story includes drugs, drag queens, and maybe even the CIA. His book is true crime, but it also veers into memoir and history. And it introduces readers to quirky characters whose eccentricities are why we have a saying here to “Keep Louisville Weird.” His book is getting some attention. Publisher's Weekly gave it a starred review and Amazon named it as one of the top true crime reads of the season. You can find David Domine' on instagram, @bluegrasspeasant, on FB David Domine', The Bluegrass Peasant and at his website www.daviddomine.com.
