Episode notes

Best-selling author Anthony Horowitz is known not only for his original works such as the Magpie Murders and the Hawthorne Series but also for managing to inhabit existing characters such as Sherlock Holmes and James Bond in his hugely successful continuation novels of these series. For generations of younger readers however it is his Alex Rider novels that have proved hugely popular and also a gateway for many to properly addictive reading. His choice is The Seven Crystal Balls, a Tintin mystery (and the first half of a two part mystery).


Anthony's latest novel 'A Twist of A Knife' is the latest Hawthorne Mystery available now.


Twice Upon A Time with Janet Ellis is a Hat Trick Podcast.


The Producers are Claire Broughton and Caroline Raphael
