Behind the stories
Sophie Turner is a crime writer interested in how stories work, how readers respond to them and how technology is changing the way writers create and publish.
The interesting part usually begins where the easy answer stops.
Books and story worlds
On the writing desk
First draft
When a freelance editor in Dublin receives a manuscript that appears to predict a real killing, she starts tracing the book’s origins and finds a chain of buried revisions, missing pages and people who would rather the story stay unfinished. The deeper she goes, the more it becomes clear that someone has been using fiction as a way to hide a crime. In a world where every version leaves a trace, the wrong draft may be the one that gets someone killed.
