Grant Stott talks to crime writer Patricia Cornwell and musician Cerys Matthews.

Grant Stott talks to crime writer Patricia Cornwell and singer and presenter Cerys Matthews. Plus today's film review hour covers The White Tiger, 76 Days and Baby, Done.

Grant speaks with bestselling American crime author, Patricia Cornwell about her latest novel ‘Spin’, the hotly anticipated sequel to her last book ‘Quantum’. The new novel follows Captain Calli Chase, a NASA test pilot, quantum physicist and cybercrime investigator during the aftermath of a NASA rocket launch that went horribly wrong.

Cerys Matthews, award-winning musician, BBC Radio 6Music broadcaster and advocate of spoken-word, discusses releasing a ground breaking album featuring ‘poem songs’ which is out this month, We Come from the Sun.

Scottish author David F. Ross is an architect by day, and a hilarious social media commentator, author and enabler by night. He tells Grant about his latest book, There's Only One Danny Garvey,  which tells the story of a promising young football player who returns home to his tiny village, his dreams in tatters and a dark secret haunting his conscience.

And Thursday means film reviews: trusty critics Ross Maclean and Amber Wilkinson look at new releases The White Tiger, 76 Days and Baby, Done.
