Hi Richard I live not far from the Staffordshire village which shares your surname, indeed there are quite a few Madeleys resting in my local churchyard too.

I enjoyed your book 'Fathers and Sons' and I am looking forward to reading your latest novel.

Hi Richard, how do you find working alongside your wife in this new fiction writing role? Surely you discuss plots/characters etc? How do you stop unintentionally sharing/stealing ideas? Do you ever read the other's manuscript and think, 'that was my scene/idea!'?

Hi Richard, I found your book 'Fathers and Sons' interesting and engrossing, you have an easy style and an authentic voice. In Some Day I'll Find You, I hope the torment mentioned above is re 'lost love' rather than a stalker! (That's not really a question by the way, otherwise the answer may be a spoiler). Good luck with the launch this coming week.

Following the success of our webchat with Judy Finnigan in March, we're delighted that Richard Madeley will be joining us for his own webchat on Tuesday 9 July at 2.15pm.

Famous for his long-running television partnership with Judy and for their book club, which has made the careers of many novelists, Richard has now produced his own debut novel, Some Day I'll Find You, which will be published on 4 July.

It is the second world war and James Blackwood, a dashing fighter pilot, is shot down on the day of his wedding. His pregnant widow has no choice but to remake her life. Ten years later, sitting contentedly in a square in France, she hears a voice she recognises, belonging to a man who will set out to torment her...
