The Book DealAmy Doak on writing young adult fiction, twisty crime, new books and tips for navigating the querying processTina Strachan interviews author Amy Doak about her YA mystery thriller What Have They Done to Liza McLean?, pitched as a twisty story set at an elite boarding school with dual viewpoints and secrets leading to a death. Amy discusses crafting one-liners using comp titles to convey “vibe,” avoiding overthinking, and balancing the ongoing Eleanor Jones series (book four, Eleanor Jones Is Not Drowning, due in July) with writing a standalone to avoid being a “one trick pony.” She shares her publishing journey: an unsellable adult action-adventure manuscript, writing Eleanor Jones for her teenage self and niece, pitching agents, submitti...

We get stuck into the best-friend boundary, the situations that look innocent on paper, and why the door being “slightly open” is still a problem.From there it turns into the usual Pulling Threads chaos: anonymous accounts talking big without putting their name to it, why that’s a bitch move, and why accountability feels like it’s disappearing in real life too.Plus Harry of the Week is a different species: Man Sharma doing the world...

Not the bio, not the grey little tag, the name. We saw it, nearly threw up, and had to unpack what kind of person does that, and why it feels so criminal. Before we get there though, we kick off with the post-challenge slump, Strava tax drama, and Troy getting absolutely rinsed for butchering the Swiss Army Knife “doctor’s ABCD”, so we made him an AI jingle like the petty blokes we are.

We rip into whether it’s a dog act or fair game, plus the worksite double standards around who gets away with what and why. Then we roll into the other stuff, king of the hill behind the scenes, building something under pressure, and the mindset shift from chasing results to leaving it all out there.

This episode pulls back the curtain on King of the Hill — the chaos, the 12-hour days, the mistakes, the wins, and that quiet moment after pack-down where you realise it actually worked. We talk livestreams, sacrifice, building something from nothing, and why the race was never really the point.
