Read This: Cara Hunter
Cara Hunter and I met in 2018 when we did an event together in Winchester for her debut novel, Close to Home, and my third, Bitter Orange. We were interviewed by the brilliant Rebecca Fletcher – I think it was her first interview, and now is much in demand. Cara, meanwhile has gone on to write many more novels, selling all over the world, and many in development for TV. Here’s what she has to say about herself:
Cara Hunter is the Sunday Times bestselling author of the DCI Adam Fawley series and the TikTok viral hit Murder in the Family. Her books have sold over a million copies in the UK alone and have been translated into 30 languages. Close to Home and The Whole Truth were selected for the Richard and Judy book club and the series is now in script development for TV. Murder in the Family was a Sunday Times, New York Times, and USA Today bestseller. The screen rights have been acquired by Neal Street Productions. On her podcast Watching the Detectives, Cara discusses crime scene investigations with DI Andy Thompson and former Crime Scene Investigator Joey Giddings.
