An Interview with Author Alex Pavesi

This week I was lucky enough to have some time with author Alex Pavesi to talk about his second novel, Ink Ribbon Red, which is released by Penguin Michael Joseph on the 7th of November. Six friends gather at a country house for a birthday weekend. They decide to play a game.All six names go in a hat. Choose two, and imagine one murdering the other.Write it down. Type it up. Read it out. Points are given for making the murders sound convincing. Of course, when given such a task, it’s only natural to use what you know. Secrets. Grudges. Affairs. But once you’ve put it in a story, that secret is out. So with each fictional murder, someone gets a motive for a real one. Which leads to the most important question: When a real murder comes, will you be able to spot it in time? If you love a mystery with a dark edge then this is definitely one you should be adding to your TBR for the chilly winter nights. We talk books, writing methods and how the plot line is not as linear as you may expect.
