I find many historical mystery series pay more attention to history than the mystery, but your Inspector Rutledge series excels at both. Many thanks for a great series. What in particular drew you to setting the series in post-WWI Great Britain? Also, I've noticed in the past few books (I'm about to read The Confession) that Hamish is not as "loud" as he was in the early books. Do you plan for Rutledge to find some peace of mind eventually from his survivor's guilt and PTSD?
