We discuss chapters 1-4, and later 5, of Szu-Yen Lin’s impossible-house impossible-crime novel, ‘Death in the House of Rain‘. Translated by the author himself, the House of Rain is an enormous mansion in the shape of the Chinese character for rain. Bodies keep dropping in mysterious, small rooms around the House of Rain. Cranial injuries galore, who is bloodthirsty enough to be rid of these young women? Herds also challenges Flex to one extra chapter to see how that alters the scope of the crimes.

Flex is also joined by Joanna Jenkins and Stuart Black to talk about corporate crime fiction, after the release of their books ‘How to Kill a Client‘, and ‘The Signatory‘, respectively. Thank you to Allen & Unwin, Interactive Publication and DMCPR for providing copies and helping arrange this panel.
