Hi, what about the places mentioned in the books? Are they all real? Eg I could not find Burnthwaite in any reference book. Thank you very much in advance. Kurt from Germany

Some are real and some are fictional Kurt!

As an educator, author and book reviewer, I usually am very critical of novels. With that said, I had to reach out to you, and express a round of applause for the books in this series! Each one stands out as an exceptional labor of love. Your plots, dialogues, characters, and settings prove your mastery of your craft. Do you foresee a new series for your beloved characters? Your readers would surely approve!

Hello. I'm presently reading "The body in the Dales" and I'm really enjoying it. In preparation for my review, I attempted to visit the website that is listed in your Goodreads bio. It is a bad link that leads nowhere - perhaps you should remove or replace it? Thanks in advance.

I am a 'lapsed' potholer and lover of crime novels and was delighted to come across The Body in the Dales. It's very well-researched and true to life with the descriptions of the people, places and techniques that are familiar to me. I've just noticed the comment below about character names - there are lots with the letter C in this one. I read books on Kindle and it is not easy to flick back to check who is who?
