#TheSnowmanCode is out in the UK this week and I was lucky enough to strike gold with it twice. Working with the world class team @HarperCollinsCh has been an absolute joy and the art by @reggiebrownart is simply beyond anything I could have dreamed of - I mean, just look at it!

I've always been fascinated by what previous generations did in the same buildings we live in today. This is what my friend @TheSimonBot found out...

Following @NOAA like all good nerds here in LA, and loving how relaxed experts can be. A tornado or two indeed. #HurricaneHilary
Hanoverian propaganda! The lad who was born to be King was brought up in Italy, so no way was he as pale as the rest of us. #Scotland
Okay dear friends, many of you have been kind enough to read my book and I am grateful. HOWEVER! The wonderful Aline has reset the bar and you all now have to read it twice too. Thank you.

Classic studio buffoonery to combine two incompatible storylines: winter will end when bosses emerge from yachts and see their own shadows BUT also vampires don’t cast shadows. So, it continues. #wga deadline.com/2023/08/writers…
My scout troop did an entire year of fundraising to send four boys who were not me to a jamboree in South Korea. Nothing but sympathy for today's youngsters, but if this had happened in 1990 I would definitely have been getting my schadenfreude badge.

Thank you @harperfictionpr @BoroughPress for sending me a copy of #SometimesPeopleDie by @TheSimonBot. Sounded great on #BetweentheCovers so am looking forward to it! It’s out on 31st August.

Fabulous to see the #BetweenTheCovers logo printed on the paperback cover of #SometimesPeopleDie by @TheSimonBot which was one of our series five picks. Highly recommend a read!
When I worked in a well-known London hospital we’d frequently X-ray patients returning from overseas and discover all of their internal organs had been stolen and replaced with styrofoam. It’s a wonder any of them made it onto the plane!
I know of two British women in a well known London hospital who came back from Turkey with no kidneys. Their organs were literally stolen while the women were under anesthetic.

In real life, Barbie was actually hugely conflicted about her contribution to the Manhattan Project. I hope this new biopic makes that clear.
None of you told me this was happening and now I have to call the police on every single one of you. bbc.com/news/uk-scotland-hig…
Can somebody please write a movie where the character everybody hopes is going to save the day turns out to be one of the main villains? I would do it but I’m on strike. #WGA #SAGAFTRA variety.com/2023/tv/news/bob… via @variety
Spoiler alert but there is some groundbreaking medicine on display in tonight’s episode of #Hijack where being stabbed in the abdomen causes a tension pneumothorax, the treatment for which is to slam a biro into the left atrium of the heart. #medtwitter
