This month, Red is joined by Mick Finlay, author of the acclaimed Arrowood series of historical detective novels. Set in Victorian London, his down-at-heel detective, William Arrowood, is a poor man’s Sherlock Holmes who makes no secret of his contempt and envy for his more famous rival. With the publication of the fourth book in the series, Arrowood and the Meeting House Murders, Red felt it was high time to bring their creator in for questioning. Together, Mick and Red explore some of the main themes and plotlines of the series, as well as the books that have inspired Mick as a storyteller.
