Description
Tonight we’re chatting with Simon Stephenson, author of the new novel SOMETIMES PEOPLE DIE which comes out this month from Hanover Square Press and HarperCollins. The new novel is about a young doctor in a struggling hospital inspired by Simon’s own experience as a physician. Amid the sick patients, over-worked staff and underfunded wards, the protagonist begins to realize: too many patients are dying and a murderer may be lurking in plain sight. This novel is not only a gripping page-turner, but reads like your favorite true crime podcast. Simon interweaves real-life medical murder cases throughout the novel as the book tumults toward its shocking conclusion.Simon’s debut Set My Heart to Five was acquired by Working Title/Edgar Wright for movie adaptation.Born in Edinburgh, Scotland, Simon Stephenson is a physician-turned-writer, now resident in Los Angeles, California. His new novel. SOMETIMES PEOPLE DIE draws from his experiences as a medical resident. He is the author of the novel SET MY HEART TO FIVE (soon to be a Working Title film), and the memoir LET NOT THE WAVES OF THE SEA (Best First Book at Scottish Book Awards). As a screenwriter, he worked on PADDINGTON 2 and Pixar’s LUCA, and wrote Amazon’s THE ELECTRICAL LIFE OF LOUIS WAIN starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Claire Foy.
