It's perhaps not a thought widely shared, but we think that William Shakespeare is one of the English language's original crime authors. You don't have to look far into his canon for murder mysteries, whodunnits, revenge thrillers or even the odd domestic noir. The Bard has certainly proved an inspiration for our guest this week, author Guy Hale who releases the first novel in his latest series, this week. The Croaking Raven is set in Stratford-Upon-Avon in 1972, where an embittered actor returns after fifteen years in the wilderness to begin a series of revenge killings against the people he holds responsible for the collapse of his on stage career. In this first book of The Shakespeare Murders trilogy, Hamlet provides the template for our murderous thespian Oliver Lawrence, and it's up to new Detective Constable Toby Marlowe and his grizzled senior partner DS Fred Williams to stop him. It's a rollicking ride. Guy also shares his secrets for building support within the independent bookshop community for his work, and how he's at the forefront of selling books direct to readers rather than relying on Amazon et al.
Also this week, Spotify are again in the news with another development in their controversial audiobook strategy, and we hear how a new publisher, Inkitt, is using AI to create new books tailored to meet market demand.
