And suddenly the world was filled with wooden faces and flat voices - and, you were alone.

But when I was a little kid, I was always writing stories and illustrating little books that I would create.

I constantly remind people that crime isn't solved by technology; it's solved by people.

With DNA, the ability to find out a lot more with a lot less has increased our ability for identification.

Murder is about power and the more powerful women get the more it will change the good that they do and the bad that they do.

Night fell clean and cold in Dublin, and wind moaned beyond my room as if a million pipes played the air.

I'm always surprised when large numbers of people buy my books.
