Hello, I just finished up the 3rd book in your series and absolutely loved it. Do you have plans for additional books in the series?

I'm glad you enjoyed the series. Yes there will be more. I have completed number 4 which will be published in the summer/autumn. I am currently writing number 5.

I have just discovered your books and am delighted with them. They remind me a lot of the BBC (I think!, not certain) series Midsomer Murders--at least the early ones with John Nettles. I actually bought a few of the series on DVD. So...my question is: was/has that been an influence on your writing?

Hello John, I have read all of the books that you have written and thoroughly enjoyed every one. I have found your books to be an entertaining breath of fresh air. I particularly like your evocative descriptions of the Yorkshire countryside, excellent plots and the solid characters; I look forward to your next book. Whilst I am waiting, do you have any locked-room books that you would particularly recommend?

J.R. Ellis:
I love your books, but one factor bothers me: multiple characters whose names begin with the same letter. TWO of Oldryd's bosses have names starting with W. It reached its peak in Redmire Hall: Alex and Antonia, and the son is Alistair, and Oldryd's sister is Alison. And we have Dominic and Douglas. We add another W in Wilkins. Why? Books like this have a lot of characters; it is hard to keep them straight.
