Nancy Stevens is joined by bestselling author Sarah Pinborough for a fascinating conversation about her latest psychological thriller, They Say a Girl Died Here. Sarah talks about the inspiration behind her new novel, which is set in Nebraska and follows a family caught up in a story involving murder, trauma, family secrets and a mysterious past. The conversation explores Sarah's approach to writing psychological thrillers, creating characters that evolve as she writes, and why she believes there's a difference between a genuine twist and simply a great reveal. Sarah also discusses the experience of seeing her books adapted for television and film, including Behind Her Eyes and Insomnia, and reveals some of the projects currently in development. Nancy and Sarah chat about reviews, word of mouth, the changing publishing industry, getting older, learning to be comfortable in your own skin and why Sarah is increasingly interested in writing the stories she genuinely wants to tell. Sarah also reveals what she has coming up, including her next novel The Winter Bones, television adaptations and a completely different book project she is excited to write. And if you've never read a Sarah Pinborough novel before, she has some suggestions for where to start! #NancyStevens #SarahPinborough #TheySayAGirlDiedHere #PsychologicalThriller #BehindHerEyes #Insomnia #NewHorizonRadio #Books #BookInterview #AuthorInterview #BookTok #Bookstagram
