This is live now over on Amy's Instagram, @AAChaudhuri is currently chatting about her book #TheAbduction and the research that went into writing it, including being in touch with an investigator to find out how fire affects DNA! Fascinating! @aforauthors@Isisaudio@CROSSLANDAM
Amy talking themes and relationships in the novel, especially a parent - child relationship in terms of being sewn into a psychological thriller. Alex says it's a facet of human nature, she's embedded into the novel - how a parent affects development. Interesting! #TheAbduction
Chatting about the dynamic duo, Jake Carver and Maddie Kramer, Alex chats about wanting a fiesty, strong and independant female lead. One that has her demons but it's made her tough. #TheAbduction#InstagramLive
Carver on the otherhand, posseses quirks, strength but has a charm and a sense of humour - uncliched, disciplined. Dedicated to her son with a thirst for truth and justice has drawn both the characters together.
Is a duo's chemistry and connection important? #TheAbduction
We want to know if there's a third one?
There is! a third serial killer case, dark issues, sexism, mysogynism weaved into a dark plot with flashbacks (so now is the time to read book 1 & 2!). Alex is 40,000 words into #KramerAndCarver3 so get reading!
At the heart of #TheAbduction is a horrific crime that has had a domino effect on the people around it. With threads of are you born a criminal or are you grown? An incorporation of a darker insight into the motivations and backstory of the crime at hand.
