Why do our leading crime writers set their books outside Australia? Is it cultural cringe? Do they just want a research trip? What are the difficulties and the rewards?

Tim Ayliffe investigates with Candice Fox, Michael Robotham, Michael Brissenden and Roger Simpson whose latest books are set in the US and the UK.
