John le Carré said the best place to start a crime novel is as
near to the end of the story as possible. But how do you know what
the story is? As writers, we all have different experiences and
skills to draw upon, and this book will help you identify the right
beginning, middle and end for your own crime novel. Whether you are
writing a police procedural or a psychological thriller, you will
need to consider the basic elements of a gripping narrative. Within
these pages, you'll learn to master the art of storytelling, from
creating a compelling plot that keeps readers on the edge of their
seats to choosing the perfect point of view to bring your
characters to life. Dive into the depths of suspense, mystery, and
surprise, as you unravel the intricacies of crafting a crime novel
that captivates and entertains. This guide will help any new or
experienced writer to navigate the writing journey, uncovering the
core principles that will make your crime fiction truly
exceptional. -- .
This book represents the first serious consideration of the
'domestic noir' phenomenon and, by extension, the psychological
thriller. The only such landmark collection since Lee Horsley's The
Noir Thriller, it extends the argument for serious, academic study
of crime fiction, particularly in relation to gender, domestic
violence, social and political awareness, psychological acuity, and
structural and narratological inventiveness. As well as this, it
shifts the debate around the sub-genre firmly up to date and brings
together a range of global voices to dissect and situate the notion
of 'domestic noir'. This book is essential reading for students,
scholars, and fans of the psychological thriller.

?Flying? focuses on seven characters crewing an airliner on a
longhaul return flight between London and New York, and the
repercussions of a wild crew party in the down route hotel. Set
entirely in the air, as the plane slips from one air traffic
control zone to the next, the life stories of the seven slowly
unravel, revealing deep scars, strange attractions and an
overwhelming need to find a place they can each call home.
