Lee Child talks Reacher, his craft, his inspiration and why he's leaving Trump's America

### WINNER 'Outstanding Indie Podcast at the True Crime Awards 2024. ###

What makes a criminal? What makes a truly great detective?

Award-winning TV crime correspondent Robert Murphy speaks with people involved with some of the most fascinating true crime cases of recent years: detectives, victims, experts and sometimes even the criminals themselves.

What drives a person to ignore the morals, laws and conventions of normal society and pushes them to perform the darkest acts?

Sex? Money? Revenge? Love? Humiliation?

Are criminals born bad or are they a creation of their circumstances?

How can detectives catch people who are intent on causing truly dreadful harm to others? What happens when that criminal has done a brilliant job covering their tracks?

This podcast and newsletter explores some of our biggest crime stories - and some of the lesser-known, compelling cases which deserve a better understanding.
