Graham Bartlett is a former police officer, having risen to Chief Superintendent of Brighton and Hove before turning to writing when he left after 30 years in the police force. Working first with renowned crime author (and former Page One guest!) Peter James on two non-fiction books gave Graham the writing bug and he has now written three crime novels, with his latest, City on Fire, just out. In addition, he has set up a consultancy for all budding and established crime writers where Graham and his team of experts offer accurate, expert advice to writers such as Peter James, Mark Billingham, Elly Griffiths, Antony Horowitz and many more.We had great fun chatting with Graham and hearing about how he set up his consultancy business and why he was tempted to try his hand at fiction writing. We also talk about him choosing to "write what you know" with his books, and ask about the police stories he couldn't include in his books.Links:Buy Graham's books nowVisit Graham's consultancy websiteFollow Graham on InstagramSupport us on Patreon and get great benefits!: https://www.patreon.com/ukpageonePage One - The Writer's Podcast is brought to you by Write Gear, creators of Page One - the Writer's Notebook.

On Elvis Costello's 70th birthday, we reach the finale of the 70@70 series. Best-selling author, musician and actor Mark Billingham joins me to discuss the top 10 in my countdown of 70 essential Costello songs.

Chris Brookmyre joins Simon and Matt to chat about his latest novel. You may have heard Mark Billingham on one of our previous Q&A episodes rave about The Cracked Mirror? Well, he did such a good job - we read it, and loved it too! So we had to have Chris on! The idea for the book came from a discussion with his Editor, who was looking for a meta crime novel. Chris has never been one to shy away from a challenge, and loves to mix up genres, so he came up with an elevator pitch "What would happen if Miss Marple had to work with Harry Bosch?" What we have is The Cracked Mirror - where cosy crime meets the grittier end of the scale. (more on the book below) As well as his new novel, Chris discusses his gig at Glastonbury, his writing processes and how and why the crime writing community is so supportive. THE CRACKED MIRROR You know Penny Coyne. The little old lady who has solved multiple murders in her otherwise sleepy village, despite bumbling local police. A razor-sharp mind in a twinset and tweed. You know Johnny Hawke. Hard-bitten LAPD homicide detective. Always in trouble with his captain, always losing partners, but always battling for the truth, whatever it takes. Against all the odds, against the usual story, their worlds are about to collide. It starts with a dead writer and a mysterious wedding invitation. It will end with a rabbit hole that goes so deep, Johnny and Penny might come to question not just whodunnit, but whether they want to know the answer. Learn more about your ad choices.

Mark Billingham joins Simon and Matt in the studio for a chat about his new character, Detective Miller. They discuss the fine line between comedy and crime, why Mark chose Blackpool as the setting for his new series and why you should always come back to an idea. We also try to find out what advice he gave Richard Osman, before he became an author... Here's more on 'The Wrong Hands': This is one case Miller won't want to open . . . Unconventional Detective Declan Miller has a problem. Still desperate to solve the murder of his wife, a young man has just appeared on his doorstep with a briefcase . . . containing a pair of severed hands. Miller knows this case is proof of a contract killing commissioned by local ne'er do well Wayne Cutler - a man he suspects might also be responsible for his wife's death. Now Miller has leverage, but unfortunately he also has something that both Cutler and a villainous fast-food kingpin are desperate to get hold of. Chuck in a Midsomer Murders-obsessed hitman, a psychotic welder and a woman driven over the edge by a wayward Crème Egg, and Miller is in a mess that even he might not be able to dance his way out of.

Mark Billingham – Theakston Old Peculier Crime Novel Of The Year Award 2024 Longlist Interview by Harrogate International Festival

In this brilliant conversion, bestselling titan of crime fiction, Mark Billingham, shares his deep-seated passion and history of book collecting, whilst revealing a major exclusive on his latest novel. Listen as Mark reminisces on unforgettable encounters with literary icons, whilst reflecting on his own journey from a fan attending author signings, to sitting behind the signing table himself as a celebrated author.See Mark at Capital Crime Festival on Saturday 1st June in London. 

Recorded live at the Theakston Old Peculier Crime Writing Festival 2023. A living legend, a national treasure, and quite simply, one of the greatest writers the crime fiction genre has ever known. Val McDermid is the author of 38 outstanding novels, a body of work unrivalled in the modern age. She is the creator of several unforgettable protagonists including Lindsay Gordon, Tony Hill and Carol Jordan, Kate Brannigan, and most recently, Allie Burns. Several have leapt from page to screen, including the brilliant Karen Pirie who was brought to life in a major ITV series last autumn. Val's most recent novel, the spellbinding 1989, is the second in an ambitious series of five books chronicling both the career of Allie Burns and the ever-changing world in which she fights to survive and uncover the truth. Val McDermid is interviewed by Mark Billingham. Podcast music by Joseph McDade.

You might know Mark Billingham as the prolific and award winning crime fiction author. We know him as a really nice bloke who we had a really lovely chat with. But we didn't think that even an interview as excellent as the one we enjoyed with Mark was enough for our amazing listeners. So, we also get stuck into another WIP, this time from listener Gayle Ramage, who shares her Scottish vampire story with us! Thanks for listening! Here's info about Mark's latest book - available in all good bookshops... https://uk.markbillingham.com/the-last-dance/ Mark's TITANS: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/16927.Dashiell_Hammett https://www.george-pelecanos.com https://www.jamesleeburke.com https://www.michaelconnelly.com

Mark Billingham has done it all. He's been an actor, a stand up, a TV screenwriter and a multi award winning crime writer. He's back with his first brand new series in 20 years, with Detective Miller: He dances, he keeps pet rats and he's very sardonic. THE LAST DANCE is a departure from Billingham's award winning Tom Thorne series, with a change of tone that brings rich humour to the whodunnit genre.Phil & Natalie love Mark's books and chatting to him. This interview is searingly honest about the pain of writing for TV; the pressures of book deadlines and if you've ever wondered where the phrase, 'blowing smoke up your arse,' comes from, Mark will tell you.

The third novel from the author of The Burning Men and The Killing Choice, featuring DI Alex Fin and DCI Mattie Paulsen. Sadie Nicholls has been found dead, brutally and strangely murdered, in her South East London flat. Her little boy is missing. DI Alex Finn and DC Mattie Paulsen know that, in the case of a missing child, it's the first 24 hours that count. They don't have many left to find out where Sadie's son might be and the identity of her killer. Why would anyone want a struggling single mother, loved by many, dead? But when they realise a similar crime was committed at the same house nearly 20 years ago, a question is on everyone's lips: is this more than just a coincidence? This is third in Will Shindler's Finn and Paulsen series - a British detective series that ranks with Mark Billingham, M.J. Arlidge and Stuart MacBride.
