Susie Dent and Louise Minchin join Joe Haddow this week for a war of the words.


Both guests have had incredible careers in TV (Susie recently celebrated 30 years of being on Countdown and Louise spent 20 years on BBC Breakfast's red sofa) and both have written non-fiction before, but have now turned their hand to novels.


Susie say's her book, Guilty By Definition, is more of a linguistic mystery than a murder mystery, whilst Louise's book, Isolation Island, is a page-turning thriller.


They discuss their love of Agatha Christie, why they both gravitated towards the crime genre and how hard they found the shift from writing non-fiction to fiction.


As well as giving us some brilliant book recommendations, they also discuss their love of...cemeteries. YEP!


THE BOOK OFF

'Red Love' by Maxim Leo

VS

'Rebecca' by Daphne Du Maurier
