Tom Hindle is the exciting new voice on the murder mystery scene, where his debut novel, A Fatal Crossing was a huge hit when it came out in 2022. His new novel, The Murder Game, is out in February 2023.

We had great fun chatting to Tom and hearing how he swapped music ambitions for writing ones, hear why he once thought A Fatal Crossing would be easy to stage as a play, and . We also talked about the enduring appeal of murder mysteries, discussed whether red herrings are good or bad things and heard about how much planning goes into these stories.
