Matt Nable on his testosterone-fuelled high stakes crime-thriller, 'Mire'

They say your life flashes before your eyes just before you die. For Dan Milligan it isn't his life ... it's memories of his dad. Dan has spent his whole life chasing something. Fast cars, leggy blondes, the rush of making a lot of money and the cocaine high to celebrate. But as the stock market plummets in 1987, his world comes crashing down. A new life on the South Coast isn't too bad. Mowing lawns is good, honest work. Most days. But other days, he tells himself he'll get back in the game. He'll get his head together, get his mojo back and master the market again. He just needs some luck. Then one day ... his luck changes. And suddenly he has a choice. Dan has no idea what he could unleash on his life, himself and his family. Or how far he will go to find a way back. In this episode Gregory Dobbs chats to Matt Nable about  storytelling from the gritty end of town, how his characters are shaped by research into real world crime , and the distinct and separate creative worlds of screen and page.
