A #1 bestselling author, artist, and the Observer’s agony aunt as well as a leading psychotherapist, Philippa Perry is a wellspring of wise and compassionate advice, helping the nation grapple with life’s big problems with her trademark warmth, wit, and emotional intelligence.
Now she joins us to reveal Shrink Solves Murder, a crime caper drawing on both her life-long love of detective fiction and everything she has learned from the therapy room.
