Stick a bunch of writers in a room with an open bar, and there's no telling what will happen. Surprisingly, though, there were no bodies left on the floor after Thrillerfest, even after David Morrell got done talking.
One of the highlights for me was meeting Tom Rob Smith, a Londoner who was honored as best new thriller writer for Child 44. As it happened, I've been reading his new book, The Secret Speech. It's one of the few books I've made it past page 100 in quite awhile. (Set in Russia during the Khrushchev era.)
But dude, you've got to lose that jacket.
