Bob Crabtree asked Bruce Beckham:

Just to say - I love your writing in the Murder series. This is from someone who spent 20+ years as a magazine wordsmith and editor. Wonderful laugh-out-loud moments often catch me unawares (cleverly contrived, too, such as Skelgill, Leyton & the gnomes outside the guest house). I've seen some comments on Amazon about the use of technical/geological/Lakeland terms but, with a Kindle, that's rarely a problem.More!?

Bruce Beckham Hi Bob - I've attempted to respond several times - but the system seems to object! Anyway - trying again (since it just let me answer a different question). Thanks for your kind words - yes - I wish I had a little more time to craft in the jokes like the one you mention (if I could think them up in the first place). Next book #8 due out in January. Regards. Bruce.
