  Justine Hardy 26 August 2005  
On her first novel, set in Kashmir

When the journalist Justine Hardy was sent to Kashmir in the early 1990s, she didn't imagine that some 15 years later the conflict would be rumbling on and that she would even set her first novel there. 

Justine  joins Martha to talk about making a home with a Muslim family in a place that is considered a crucible of Islamic extremism and how the experience inspired her romantic book The Wonder House.

The Wonder House by Justine Hardy, published by Atlantic Books - ISBN: 1843544326.
