Thrills, spills and a strong female lead

Anna Maloney’s fast-paced new thriller The 10:12 is set onboard a hijacked train, and some passengers aren’t just going to sit back and do as they’re told. One in particular, Claire Fitzroy, a late mid-life arts teacher, ruffles feathers when she not only takes action, but takes charge.  Anna chats to Mick about how wildly recollections of events may differ, have-a-go heroes (and heroines), and why you should never underestimate a woman in her mid-life.  There is, as ever, more chat for our £5 and above patrons, so if you fancy getting involved, visit patreon.com/standardissue.  Learn more about your ad choices.
