Fabulous reads: Chris Carter returns with brilliant dark novel
Genesis, Chris Carter, Jonathan Ball Publishers, ISBN: 9781471197581 Genesis has been, by far, one of the darkest crime thrillers I have read. It's gruesome, graphic and unsettling. A close second, for me, would be Ragdoll by Daniel Cole. It is definitely not a read for the faint of heart. In saying so, Genesis is nothing short of brilliant. While Chris Carter weaved the most unimaginable, abhorrent and brutal crimes, he also surprisingly managed to show the humanity of the killer, whose murders had people questioning if it was the work of the devil himself. Also read: Fabulous reads: Secrets and suspense collide in compelling page-turner The book had me guessing the 'who' and the 'why' until the very end. And the truth was devastating – sparked by a tragedy that you wouldn't think could happen to anyone these days. And while the investigators, Robert Hunter and his partner, Carlos Garcia, are not my absolute favourite duo, their characters are relatable, compassionate and determined yet flawed. They had an easy, believable and endearing bond. This is everything you would expect from a 12th book in a series. I will definitely keep my eyes peeled for the other editions in this series. – Mariclair Smit 5/5 stars For more from the Highway Mail, follow us on Facebook , X and Instagram.

Post your questions for Cosey Fanni Tutti
She is a pillar of industrial music who was called a 'wrecker of civilisation' in the UK parliament because of her subversive and boundary-pushing art, and who wrote one of the best music memoirs of recent years. Now, with a new album due for release, Cosey Fanni Tutti will be answering your questions. Born Christine Carol Newby in 1951, she was a founding member of the music and performance art collective Coum Transmissions. Their 1976 exhibition Prostitution prompted the aforementioned parliamentary commentary, plus plenty more controversy besides: it featured explicit photography of Tutti – who also worked as a stripper and in the adult film industry – alongside rusty knives, syringes, bloodied hair and used sanitary towels. Then in 1975, with her Coum collaborators Genesis P-Orridge and Peter 'Sleazy' Christopherson, Tutti formed the band Throbbing Gristle, along with Chris Carter. Built from samples, effects and noise, their work continued the frankness of Coum Transmissions: Zyklon B Zombie was a reference to the lethal gas used in the Nazi death camps and Hamburger Lady was inspired by the story of a burns victim. Throbbing Gristle became icons of underground music. After the group disbanded in 1981, Tutti and Carter formed the synthpop duo Chris & Cosey (latterly Carter Tutti) and put out 17 studio albums over the years. Tutti reflected on her transgressive – and at times traumatic – life's work in her memoir Art Sex Music, published in 2017, and later wrote another book, Re-Sisters, telling the stories of two other radical women: the 20th-century electronic composer Delia Derbyshire and 15th-century mystic Margery Kempe. Tutti is now getting ready to release her new album, 2t2, in June, and will answer your questions. Would you like to know more about where her provocative art comes from? Her appearance in the video to Sylvester's disco classic You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real), or her time in an art commune in Hull? Post your questions in the comments before 10am BST on Tuesday 13 May. Her answers will be published in Film & Music on 30 May.

David Duchovny's Longtime Malibu Home Lists for $12.5 Million
David Duchovny acquired a landlocked 1950s abode in the gated Point Dume enclave of Malibu almost a decade ago and then proceeded to build a brand-new modern home in its stead. There, amid the site that he's referred to as his 'magical place,' the veteran film and TV actor also kitted out an existing train caboose where he went on to pen his 2021 novel Truly Like Lightning and record episodes of his Fail Better podcast. The X-Files and Californication star has now chosen to part ways with his beloved digs and has the spot up for sale, asking $12.5 million—around $7.8 million more than he paid back in mid-2016. Based in New York at the time, Duchovny first rented the property from The X-Files writer/producer Chris Carter as a Los Angeles pied-à-terre before buying the property and making it his primary residence, according to The Wall Street Journal.

Large pivoting glass doors provide seamless indoor/outdoor environs. Standing out is the spacious great room, which holds a living room, a dining area, and a kitchen outfitted with custom cabinetry, stone countertops, and top-tier Miele and Fisher & Paykel appliances. The primary suite flaunts a walk-in closet, plus a luxe bath sporting a clawfoot soaking tub and a steam shower. Two more en-suite bedrooms each have white oak floors and built-in closets, while an office overlooks picturesque grounds hosting a lap pool and a sunken fire pit. RELATED: The Epic Pool at This $25 Million Malibu Home Will Make Your Favorite 5-Star Jealous Topping off the listing, which is held by Chris Cortazzo of Compass, is a detached building that currently serves as a gym, as well as the aforementioned caboose-turned-guesthouse, which has its own living and sleeping area, kitchen, built-in dining nook, bath, and rooftop deck. The property also transfers with a deeded access key to a secluded beach. Per WSJ, the 64-year-old New York native and two-time Golden Globe-winning actor has decided to sell because his children are grown.
