Merry Christmas!

 


I'd like to wish all readers of this blog a very merry Christmas. And what better moment to mention my new novel for 2025? As the picture indicates, this is a Christmas mystery novel called Miss Winter in the Library with a Knife and it will be published by Head of Zeus/Aries in September next year. 

In the past I've written Christmas short stories - a Harry Devlin tale, long ago, called 'I Say a Little Prayer', and more recently 'End Game' - but this is my first Christmas novel. And it's a novel with puzzles, as well as a Cluefinder, so there is an interactive element. 

I've been extremely pleased by the initial response to the book, from bloggers and commentators, and also from overseas publishers who have been seeking translation rights. So this may be an augury of more good things to come. 

But that's for the future. Right now, it's time to enjoy 'the most wonderful time of the year'. I hope you have a really good Christmas and look forward to writing more for you in 2025.
