Episode 17: Is The Salt Path bestseller just Cornish Cobblers?
A bumper edition with allegations that the worldwide bestseller The Salt Path is fabricated in parts plus our take on the guilty verdicts for Erin Patterson, the Beef Wellington multiple killer. The Observer newspaper in the UK is either going to win awards or be sued out of business by Raynor Winn and her terminally ill husband Moth. It alleges the couple made up big parts of their triumph over adversity story including the claim that Moth is slowly dying from an incurable disease. The book has spawned two sequels and now a major motion picture - but what if it's all cobblers? Martin Frizell and Professor David Wilson are careful to acknowledge the authors denials and explore the shockwaves from the allegations.
