Claire Douglas

The Woman Who Lied tells the story of Emilia Ward. She’s the
bestselling author of detective novels, but as she embarks on her
tenth book an incident straight out of one of her plots occurs in
real life. Then it happens again, and again.


Returning Book Club author Claire Douglas joins Richard and Judy
to talk about why this incredibly intricate story within a story
meant she had to keep detailed plot and character notes for the
first time in her novel writing career. They also discuss the
endless re-writing process authors have to go through with
editors – a procedure none of them truly appreciated until they
became authors themselves.
