Alexander now holds the very special honour of being the 𝒇𝒊𝒓𝒔𝒕 male author to feature in the book boxes and he certainly brought his A-game to our little spoiler-free chat! 🙌

We talked about the golden age of crime novels, how he was inspired by reading Josephine Tey and Agatha Christie, why he was deported from Russia and most importantly why his protagonist mendicant monk is nameless and the technical difficulties that present while writing.
