Berlin/Wiltshire - For the past decade Victoria Gosling has run The Reader Berlin, a platform offering courses and services for the city s large community of English-language writers. Her own debut novel - Before the Ruins - was published by Henry Holt and Co in the US on 12 January, with the UK release planned for May. It s a cracking read with nary a dull sentence in it. A classic murder mystery of a sort, the story includes an English manor house and some missing diamonds - woven into a contemporary tale of heartache and alienation. Victoria spoke to us on the phone from her parents house in Wiltshire, where she s been caring for her poorly mother, just a few miles away from the setting of her novel.
