Crime stories shape what we read, what we watch, who we are. We look forward to hearing from Jane Lythell (author of Behind Her Back and The Lie of You, currently in film production), Sarah Pinborough (Behind Her Eyes) and Matt Wesolowski (Hydra) about Hollywood deals, the exciting crossover between page and screen, as well as the opportunities and challenges of writing crime stories that engage with different media.
