As the US grappled with an incendiary president, soaring coronavirus deaths and an undercurrent of civil unrest, the American crime writer recently found himself "going a little nuts on the internet" in search of coastal properties in Perth.
It's shortly after 7pm and Winslow is sitting at a dining table in his home in the seaside state of Rhode Island, tucking into a plate of fish, chips and clear broth clam chowder – a Rhode Island speciality.Meanwhile, I'm on the other side of the world, under mandatory quarantine at Sydney's Hilton Hotel, eating a not-so-tasty breakfast of beans, toast and an over-ripe banana, served to returned travellers under two weeks of lockdown.
Boring is hardly a word you'd use to describe a best-selling author whose early career reads like a novel in itself: leading tours in Africa; running a movie theatre chain; working as a private investigator in Times Square.But 2020 has certainly been a change of pace for Winslow, whose busy regime has typically involved working on two books at a time, often writing from 5.30am to 10am, and then embarking on a 10-kilometre hike before returning to work again in the afternoon.
The change of pace also paved the way for Winslow to shift his attention to another passion project: the demise of Trump. "We're either going to try to return to our democratic ideals or we're going to slide into the sort of shoddy criminal fascism that we've seen from this administration," he says. "I can't imagine what this country will look like if we have a couple of more years of this. I just can't."

US Election 2020: Border closure stops people ‘moving to Canada’ if Trump winsThe US election has seen the return of Americans vowing to flee the country if Donald Trump wins.

Judge rejects US request to shield Trump from rape accuser's defamation lawsuitA federal judge has denied President Donald Trump's request that the United States replace him as the defendant in a defamation lawsuit alleging he raped a woman in a Manhattan department store in the 1990s. “The United States did not have sexual relations with that woman.” How in the world would the United States replace Trump as a defendant in a lawsuit alleging rape and defamation?! North Korea, may be. Kazakhstan, may be. United States? Boring
