In 2006 she won the inaugural Duncan Lawrie Dagger, the richest crime-writing prize in the world, for her novel <a href=\"https:\/\/suffolk.spydus.co.uk\/cgi-bin\/spydus.exe\/ENQ\/WPAC\/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&amp;BRN=3800304\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Raven Black<\/em><\/a>. Ann also created the Vera Stanhope novels which have been dramatised as the TV detective series Vera and the Jimmy Perez novels as the series Shetland.<\/p>\n<p>You can find Ann&#8217;s novels on the <a href=\"https:\/\/suffolkcommunitylibraries.co.uk\/borrow\/our-catalogue\/\">Suffolk Community Libraries catalogue<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;19px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.3em&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; link_font_size=&#8221;19px&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why do you think crime books are so popular?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I think crime novels have always been popular and now we have a greater variety than ever. The popularity has something to do with great story-telling and the sense of resolution at the end of the novel. There are books to suit every possible taste from the gentle and domestic to pacy thrillers.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Who were your literary influences as you were growing up?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I was an Enid Blyton child; though I realised quite soon that she wasn&#8217;t a fantastic writer there was something very compulsive about her books. She had the skill to make the reader long to turn the page to find out what would happen next. I moved on quite quickly through Malcolm Saville, the Father Brown and Sherlock Holmes stories to Christie and the rest of the Golden Age detective novelists. Although I went on to read widely in very different genres, crime fiction was always my comfort reading.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where did the character of Vera Stanhope come from?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Vera appeared fully formed when I was stuck with the plot of <a href=\"https:\/\/suffolk.spydus.co.uk\/cgi-bin\/spydus.exe\/ENQ\/WPAC\/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&amp;BRN=2789171\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>The Crow Trap<\/em><\/a>. It was planned as a novel of psychological suspense and I didn&#8217;t expect to create a detective character at all. Trying to unpick it, I think Vera was inspired by some of the formidable spinsters I knew when I was growing up. I was born in the mid-fifties and they were probably created by the war &#8211; they&#8217;d either lost sweethearts to the fighting or they&#8217;d taken on responsibilities that wouldn&#8217;t have been available to them in previous times. They seemed to rule the small town where I lived &#8211; one was a hospital matron, another the Sunday school teacher, another the head mistress of my infant school. They were very competent, but not at all glamorous.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>You must have had your own idea of what your characters look like. Has it helped or hindered you having them live on screen?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I try to keep the screen characters separate from the characters in my head &#8211; though Brenda Blethyn has very much become my Vera. It&#8217;s easier with Jimmy Perez, the detective in Shetland, because Dougie Henshall looks quite different from my creation. He&#8217;s blond and Scottish while my Jimmy is dark and Spanish-looking. Dougie absolutely captures the essence of the man, though. I&#8217;ve been incredibly lucky with both adaptations.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do you still read other crime writers now you are a writer yourself?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Absolutely! My reading passion is translated crime fiction. I love the French writer Fred Vargas and I&#8217;ve just come across Valerio Varesi who sets his work in the Pau valley in Italy. And of course there are some wonderful Icelandic and Scandinavian authors when I&#8217;m in the mood for cold weather and a bleak landscape.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>How do you know when an idea has the potential to become a book?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know really until I start writing about it. I never plot in advance and the story grows. I&#8217;m influenced by my preoccupations of the time rather than a specific idea. The theme emerges as I write.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is there anything you can share about your latest project?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>My new book, <a href=\"https:\/\/suffolk.spydus.co.uk\/cgi-bin\/spydus.exe\/ENQ\/WPAC\/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&amp;BRN=2877051\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Cold Earth<\/em><\/a>, will be published in October. It&#8217;s a Shetland novel. There&#8217;s a landslide that cuts Shetland mainland in half, sweeping away a small croft house as mud and rocks slip towards the sea. Everyone believes that the house was empty, but the body of a woman wearing a red silk dress is found in the debris. I&#8217;ve just started a new Vera book.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>What would be your perfect day?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Up early to write &#8211; I still love the process of making up stories. Then a walk up the Northumberland coast with my husband Tim, perhaps with lunch at the Boat Shed in Amble. And we&#8217;d end up in the Rockcliffe Arms, our local pub, with our friends.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;
