In this episode, bestselling thriller author Chris Pavone — known for The Expats, The Paris Diversion, and Two Nights in Lisbon — reflects on his transition from a publishing career to becoming a full-time novelist. He shares how his life abroad shaped his early storytelling, why he’s drawn to characters navigating uncertainty, and the techniques he uses to build tension, craft twists, and turn cities like Lisbon and Paris into living characters on the page.
Pavone explains how he researches international thrillers, how he balances fact and invention, and what makes a twist not just clever but deeply satisfying. He also discusses the challenges of returning to the same characters for a sequel and what he hopes global readers — including those at the Sharjah International Book Fair — take away from his work beyond suspense alone.
