I read avidly and indiscriminately, as all aspiring authors should; you learn as much, if not more, from bad books as you do from good. I read Blyton, of course, and Malcolm Saville was a great favourite. I read a lot of classic, or semi-classic, adventure stories, in editions I now suspect were heavily abridged: <a href=\"https:\/\/suffolk.spydus.co.uk\/cgi-bin\/spydus.exe\/ENQ\/WPAC\/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&amp;BRN=31634\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>The Man in the Iron Mask<\/em><\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/suffolk.spydus.co.uk\/cgi-bin\/spydus.exe\/ENQ\/WPAC\/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&amp;BRN=62966\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>The Swiss Family Robinson<\/em><\/a>, and so on. There was a wonderful version of <em>The Adventures of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table<\/em>, which included the proper, tragic ending, curing me of the notion that \u201cand they all lived happily ever after\u201d was the only note to end on.<\/p>\n<p>When I moved on to adult fiction, which I did at an early age, it was initially crime and thriller fiction I read \u2013 Dame Agatha, of course; Alistair MacLean; the wonderful Dick Francis \u2013 before more grown-up fare came along, largely American: Hemingway, Fitzgerald, Steinbeck. I read Nabokov quite young, because there was a copy of Laughter in the Dark on my parents\u2019 bookshelves.<\/p>\n<p>But mostly I was a library user, as I still am, which meant I could pick up anything that caught my eye. Writers now largely forgotten, like John O\u2019Hara and Victor Canning. Anything with that yellow Victor Gollancz spine &#8230; loads of stuff, far more varied than my reading habits now. And everything was an influence, I\u2019m sure.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where did the inspiration for Jackson Lamb come from?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Well, he was never intended to be a major character. I found my original notes for <a href=\"https:\/\/suffolk.spydus.co.uk\/cgi-bin\/spydus.exe\/ENQ\/WPAC\/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&amp;BRN=3105450\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Slow Horses<\/em><\/a> not long ago, and all he amounted to then was \u201cdrunken has-been of a boss\u201d. But he turned out to be fun to write, as monstrous characters tend to be, so his role grew and grew. As for inspiration, I used to like to say that I was both a commuter and an office worker, so bile and rage were never very far below the surface. That\u2019s what I tapped into to channel him. I\u2019m neither of those things now, so maybe he\u2019ll mellow&#8230; but I hope not.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>How difficult did you find it to create your own place in writing about spies when everyone is inevitably compared to le Carr\u00e9 and Deighton?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I was quite a way into my career before I turned to writing about spies, and it was at least partly because there was no chance of my matching the standard set by those two masters. But when the urge became too strong, I gave in to it, and yes, inevitably, the comparisons arose. But I\u2019m ploughing a different furrow, I hope. I\u2019m not in their league, but I\u2019ve found a way of working in the genre which has allowed me to use my own voice.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Was <em>The Usual Santas<\/em> as much fun to write as it sounds?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes! I don\u2019t write many short stories, but I had a ball with that one. I\u2019m delighted to say it\u2019s about to appear in an anthology from Soho Press \u2013 a collection also called <em>The Usual Santas<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do you have a message for your many readers in Suffolk&#8217;s libraries?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Hello, thank you, and make the most of your libraries \u2013 don\u2019t let anyone take them away.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is the best piece of advice you were ever given?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>About writing? Good question &#8230; I remember, at the age of ten or so, showing a story I\u2019d written to my mum, and her telling me it had too many adjectives. I\u2019ve tried to avoid that error since.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can you tell us one thing that your readers might not know about you?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I used to have a goldfish called
