On today’s Complicated Conversations, we welcome Clemence Michallon, author of international bestseller The Quiet Tenant, to discuss her new thriller, Our Last Resort. Fifteen years ago, Frida and her brother escaped a cult. Now her brother is the prime suspect in a murder investigation—and it isn’t the first time.
We chat with Clemence about sibling dynamics, whether you can ever really know someone, her obsession with cults and their impact on identity, writing dual timelines “on steroids,” and the significance of music in her work.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
