About this episode

Harlan Coben has sold over 80 million books, and 12 of his novels have been adapted for film and TV. How on earth does someone gain such success?

Cush talks to Harlan about his childhood - growing up in 'Soprano's land' (aka Livingston, New Jersey) in the shadow of gangsters and a nuclear missile base; his real life love story of meeting his wife as a sophomore; and finally the death of his parents and the profound effect it had on him.
