I'll always be grateful to Dorothy Koomson for joining me on the first-ever live show at the London Podcast Festival this year. Dorothy is celebrating 20 years as a published author and is known as the ‘Queen of the big reveal’. Her emotional thrillers have connected with readers all over the world, so it's no surprise that she was a judge for the 2022 Women’s Prize for fiction, and recently joined the inaugural advisory board for independent publisher and bookseller Jacaranda Books. And Dorothy's 19th book — yes, you read correctly, 19 — Every Smile You Fake, will be out in February 2024. This is a very special episode which happens to coincide with Black History Month, so I hope you enjoy our conversation as much as Dorothy and I did.
Pre-order Dorothy's new book Every Smile You Fake.
