Welcome to Dedicated with Doug Brunt.

You have just gained access to an exclusive insider's look at the lives and works of some of your favorite authors and hear conversations with the world's greatest writers as they discuss their writing lifestyle, creative process, latest work, and behind the scenes revelations.

Welcome to Dedicated. I'm your host Doug Brunt. Today we're talking with Andrew Claven.

Andrew is the award-winning author of more than 30 books, including True Crime, which was made

into a movie with Clint Eastwood, and Don't Say a Word, made into a movie starring Michael

Douglas. He's been nominated for

five Edgar Awards, winning twice. He also hosts the hit show, The Andrew Claven Show,

available as a podcast and on YouTube, where he has hundreds of thousands of subscribers.

His latest is the novel, The House of Love and Death, which features the return of the character

Cameron Winter,

a former spy and assassin turned English professor.

The book's already getting terrific reviews, including a starred review from publishers weekly,

and glowing praise from Stephen King.

Andrew, welcome to the show.

Thank you kindly. It's good to be here.

So we are going to be having some McCallon 12-year scotch.

That's the real stuff.

And we've got it in the box here, which I'm going to undo.
