Winter Games is a brilliantly conceived and highly original historical novel. It moves between 1930s Germany and London in 2006 as Francie Fitzsimon tries to discover what happened to her grandmother. Caught up in the gathering storm of the Third Reich and the approach of war, it is a story of secrets and a tale of betrayal. Rachel, editor-in-chief of The Lady and author of the satirical novels Notting Hell and Shire Hell, is a superb journalist and this wonderfully wrought story is her best work yet. Rachel joins us to talk about her writing and editing life.
