Katherine Pathak's Blog

When tragic stories fill the news bulletins, it’s understandable how we often turn to crime fiction for our answers.

Over 100 years since the release of her first novel, Agatha Christie remains the most popular author of all time. Crime fiction in general, has never been so in demand, both in novels and on TV. For those of us who write in the crime genre, this popularity will come as no real surprise. I have never felt that an interest in the crimes we commit against one another was prurient or unpleasant.
