J.P. Delaney joins Philippa to talk about his latest psychological thriller, The Move — a tense, unsettling story about a dream home that turns into a nightmare.

We talk about:

• The inspiration behind The Move and the emotional pull of houses and “home”
• Why this novel steps away from tech-driven thrillers
• Writing routines, plotting, and the importance of rewriting
• Obsession, truth, and the psychology behind his characters

J.P. also shares what he’s been reading:

• Daisy Darker, Sometimes I Lie and Beautiful Ugly by Alice Feeney
• The Broken Afternoon by Simon Mason
• The Elegance of the Hedgehog by Muriel Barbery
• In Her Defence by Philippa Manica — a standout courtroom thriller he highly recommends

Plus: writing in beautiful locations, why Starbucks is his worst nightmare, and the surprising snack (not biscuits) that fuels his writing.

Perfect for fans of twisty psychological thrillers and fast-paced, high-concept fiction.
