Ruth Ware, author of the “extraordinary” New York Times-bestselling thriller Zero Days, has been interviewed by Quick Book Reviews Podcast.

In the interview, which you can listen to in full here, Ruth reads a passage from her book and talks to Philippa Hall about the inspirations behind Zero Days, her writing process… and her favourite biscuit!

Zero Days sees acclaimed crime author Ruth Ware return with an adrenaline-fuelled thriller that combines Mr. and Mrs. Smith with The Fugitive and follows a woman in a race against time to clear her name and find her husband’s murderer.

Hired by companies to break into buildings and hack security systems, Jack and her husband, Gabe, are the best penetration specialists in the business. But after a routine assignment goes horribly wrong, Jack arrives home to find her husband dead. To add to her horror, the police are closing in on their suspect—her.

Suddenly on the run and quickly running out of options, Jack must decide who she can trust as she circles closer to the real killer in this unputdownable and heart-pounding mystery from an author whose “propulsive prose keeps readers on the hook and refuses to let anyone off until all has been revealed” (Shelf Awareness).
