Award winning thriller writer Clare Mackintosh tells Trish & Lorraine why she decided to write about the loss of her baby boy Alex, a twin, and shares what she has learnt about grief, including exactly what to say to someone who has been bereaved. In a moving, uplifting and advice-filled chat the mum of three, aged 47, also talks about why she walked away from her career as a high ranking police officer when her children were little. Plus: why do we feel invisible after 40, six lovely things to do & buy this summer and Lorraine turns sleuth to return two lost passports.
