LuAnn asked Peter Swanson:

Just finished reading 8 Perfect Murders - loved it almost as much as The Kind Worth Killing. I can't help but notice in all of your books the mention of Winslow College - is there a personal connection for you? Also, you often bring back Detective Roberta James - who is my favorite bad-ass cop! Any plans on writing a book with her as the main character?

Peter Swanson Hi Luann, thanks for being a reader! Winslow College is a made up place, loosely related to Wellesley College. And thank you for bringing up my recurring character of Roberta James. No plans to make her a lead yet, but I'd love to do it one day. Best, Peter

Dear Peter, I love all of your books. Just a minor point about Her Every Fear. I think it would not be so easy to get a visa to the States as a European citizen these days?! You always have to go through an online clearance (and perhaps more).... Sincerely, Birgitt

Bridget Gaynor asked Peter Swanson:

Hi Peter I have a question about Mystery books I'm writing a crime book thats set in Melbourne Australia and I've got this idea of a backstory of two characters in the book I'm writing. Are backstories involving 2 characters good for a mystery book or would the readers get confused? Kind regards Bridget Gaynor

Really enjoyed Eight Perfect Murders and it was fun rereading some of my favorite mysteries. But please tell us that Nero is being well cared for! He is, isn’t he?
