The author of one of the year's most exciting debuts - Edwardian mansion heist The Housekeepers - returns to let us know, among other things, how he researches his history; what comes first, the characters or the research; what the Curtis Brown Creative writing course he attended was like; and what it's like to be given the star debut treatment from your publisher.
