His first book, <em>You Don't Know Me</em>, was chosen by Simon Mayo as a BBC Radio 2 Book Club Choice for 2017 and longlisted for Theakston Crime Novel of the Year and for the CWA Gold Dagger award. It's currently being adapted for TV. His latest book, <em>I Know What I Saw</em>, is just out.</p><p><br></p><p>We loved chatting with Imran about how he got into writing and how his day job as a criminal barrister helps shape his stories. We also stand back in awe as he tells us how he balances that day job, the writing, TV work and having a young family (while also reading about 5 books at once)!</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Links:</strong></p><p><br></p><p><a href=\"https://uk.bookshop.org/books?keywords=imran+mahmood\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Buy I Know What I Saw and Imran's other books here</a></p><p><a href=\"https://twitter.com/imranmahmood777\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Follow Imran on Twitter</a></p><p><br></p><p>The Page One Podcast is brought to you by Write Gear, creators of Page One - the Writer's Notebook.
