Viv Groskop from the Bath Literature Festival seemed to think it was All Very Dangerous ( Read more... )

So, following the end of Scott & Bailey, my mind continued to run on my OTP Murray & Dodson, and particularly the images and possibilities conjured up in the final scene, and I found myself writing a short piece of femslash that's a bit slashier than usual for me.
