Did you find the skills required for that job were transferable to your new career as a novelist?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I was a reporter for eight years and it\u2019s helped me in many ways. As a journalist you learn to respect the reader, to use words as a bridge to connect with the reader rather than a barrier. You also learn to work to deadline; to expect your copy to be changed (and improved) by others as a natural part of the process; and you get into the rhythm of writing every day to make your living. All helpful for the would-be author.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>We hear so much about &#8216;the twist&#8217; in the latest thrillers. Is it tough to keep coming up with something new and surprising?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In a way it is difficult, because readers (myself included) have become used to anticipating the twist and so maybe it\u2019s more difficult to pull off than it used to be. But I think in the same way that there are an infinite number of stories, there are also an infinite number of twists \u2013 the author just needs to be sneaky enough to take us by surprise in a legitimate way. Sometimes as an author that can be quite a mental challenge, but I love to be able to surprise people!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Your latest book is <a href=\"https:\/\/suffolk.spydus.co.uk\/cgi-bin\/spydus.exe\/ENQ\/WPAC\/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&amp;BRN=2561306\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em><strong>The Holiday<\/strong><\/em><\/a>.

But as the week goes on, their friendship starts to unravel amid secrets, betrayal and lies, until it becomes clear that someone in the group is prepared to kill to keep a long-buried truth from coming out&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Your books are hugely successful around the world. Do the settings and plot translate directly or do they have to adapt for say, the South Korean audience?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I think the books tend to translate well to other countries as the stories are universal. They are about relationships: with <em>Lies<\/em>, the relationship between a man and his wife; with <em>29 Seconds<\/em>, the relationship between a woman and her boss; with <em>The Holiday<\/em>, the relationship between four lifelong friends. So I think the stories are readily accessible to readers wherever they are, and the settings \u2013 London for <em>Lies<\/em> and <a href=\"https:\/\/suffolk.spydus.co.uk\/cgi-bin\/spydus.exe\/ENQ\/WPAC\/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&amp;BRN=2326618\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>29 Seconds<\/em><\/a>, the south of France for <em>The Holiday<\/em> \u2013 are fairly recognisable to people wherever they happen to be reading.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Has a book ever changed your life or made you think differently?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>A Simple Plan<\/em>, by Scott Smith.

I got into a bit of trouble doing that, but I remember it was the first time that I thought maybe one day I\u2019d be able to write books that had the same effect on people. It\u2019s what I try to do now. It was about that time that I read Harlan Coben\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/suffolk.spydus.co.uk\/cgi-bin\/spydus.exe\/ENQ\/WPAC\/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&amp;BRN=1219340\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Tell No One<\/em><\/a>, which featured his trademark combination of a gripping story, great dialogue, compelling bad guys and a protagonist you\u2019re rooting for from page one.
