Mark Billingham

Paperback WritersSeries 2
Episode 2 of 4

Another chance to hear Mark Billingham's selections. Mark's choices have an obvious dark and dangerous theme. Both he and his protagonist Tom Thorne love Johnny Cash and Hank Williams. Mark agonised over the songs he chose for this hour, and they help give a greater understanding of his writing.
