Renée read her first detective novel in the 1930s. She hasn’t stopped since.
This archive episode of Shedunnit (my personal favourite of all the ones I've ever made) was first published on 2nd September 2020.
You can read Renée's obituary here. Her crime novels, The Wild Card and Blood Matters, are available from all good booksellers.
