She Wrote a Murder Mystery to Survive Turning 40

British author Gemma Denham joins Matthew Gray to share how she wrote her debut murder mystery The Storm as part of her “40 Before 40” challenge. She talks about the Agatha Christie obsession that sparked the book, the real controlling relationship she turned into fiction, and the hilarious moment her family taped her to a chair for research. A warm, funny, and honest conversation about creativity, midlife reinvention, British parenting, and the joy of becoming a first‑time author.
