Episode 8: Sarah Hilary

Autism and Us

In this episode, I talk to Sarah Hilary about her son and his diagnosis of autism.

Sarah is a UK crime novelist and former bookseller. Her debut, 'Someone Else's Skin', won the 2015 Theakston's Old Peculier Crime Novel of the Year Award

'Someone Else's Skin' is the first book of the 'Marnie Rome' series with a further four books published. The fifth in the series, 'Never Be Broken' is out later this year.
