Description
Can you stop a murder after it's already happened? That is the question we explore on this episode of Complicated Conversations. We are joined by Gillian McAllister to discuss the premise of her seventh novel, Wrong Place Wrong Time.* After we gush about how much we loved this book, we discuss Jen, the lawyer, wife, mother, who must save her son from the unthinkable. (03:15)* This book is undoubtedly a page-turning thriller, but it has so much heart. We had to know how Gillian managed to nail the emotional truths of motherhood so well. (05:52)* We ask Gillian about the “big swing” she took with this novel by delving into time loops and the supernatural. We loved hearing about how her belief in this story from the start was unwavering and what Russian Doll has to do with it! (11:22)* On a deeper level, this book explores fate vs free will. It's not a spoiler to say that there are things that can be changed by going back in time, but there are some things that cannot, things that are meant to be one way or another. (17:05)* Gillian, Kate and Carinn are ALL lawyers so of course we had to ask about how she reconciles these parts of herself and when she decided to make the leap to full time author based on a question from a friend. (19:26)* Gillian’s career is marked by success after success, but it wasn’t always easy. (25:14)* We talk about The Honest Author’s podcast, which Gillian co-hosts with a fellow author. (27:58)* We of course discuss astrology and then we get into tarot cards and the fascinating way that Gillian uses them. She has us ready to try! (30:11)* Gillian shares what she is loving right now.
