For the latest SWH! podcast Ali spoke to writer N.E. Solomons about her debut thriller The Bone Road, which is published by Polygon Books.
The two talk about why she wanted to write this book, how it changed into something very different from that initial conception, the challenges in writing in this specific genre, setting events in the Balkans, the creation of the two central characters and how they work together, and parallels with the present day.
Natasha also talks about her life as a writer - be that historical fiction, as a playwright, or screenwriting, offering insights into that world and some advice for others. Altogether it's a fascinating conversation which will be of interest to writers, readers, and all book lovers alike.
The Bone Road is published on the Polygon imprint of Birlinn Books
