How my first novel made number 1 on the bestsellers list – an evening with Jennie Godfrey
The bestselling author of ‘The List of Suspicious Things’, tells all about making it to the top later in life and at the first attempt!
Set in 1980s Yorkshire, her debut novel features school friends who try and solve the Ripper murders and compile a list of suspicious people in their community… It’s a story of growing up and family secrets set against a backdrop of Jackie magazine, Ker-Plunk, the Wombles, Wagon Wheels and Britain’s first woman Prime Minister.

Reviews
Godfrey succeeds brilliantly in fitting a gripping and moving story in the interstices of a horrific episode in recent history, without ever trivialising, taking focus from, or minimising the lasting impact of the original crimes.
