I love mysteries, and I read them every night before I go to bed.

I've always loved mysteries, the something there that you didn't know, and with 'Case Histories' I just decide to make that more up-front.

I love mysteries on television - the more psychologically complex, the better.

I just have mysteries in all my books, I think, whether it's a boy investigating or a girl. I have an enduring fascination with mysteries of all kinds.

Part of my motivation for writing mysteries for young people is that I loved mysteries when I was growing up, and now that I'm on the creative end of things, I'm discovering that they're even more fun to write!

I know nothing about mysteries. I don't take to them.

It's good to have mysteries. It reminds us that there's more to the world than just making do and having a bit of fun.

Mysteries I read for fun, so I will probably never write one, for fear of spoiling the fun.

I like the unknown. I like mystery.

The funny thing is, though I write mysteries, it is the one genre in adult fiction I never read. I read Nancy Drew, of course, when I was a kid, but I think the real appeal is as a writer because I'm drawn to puzzly, complicated plots.
