Lynda La Plante
Getting Away with Murder
Crime writing royalty, smasher of glass ceilings and author of over 40 bestselling novels Lynda La Plante reflects on a phenomenally successful career.
From her early days in Liverpool to becoming a BAFTA award-winning writer and producer, Lynda regales with her tales of stage and screen. Still at the very top of her game, Lynda shares her story on her own terms and talks about her new crime series.
Lynda will be in conversation with Joe Haddow — BBC Radio 2 producer, writer of middle-grade fiction and non-fiction, podcast host, and drummer.
‘Lynda La Plante practically invented the thriller.’
