It’s true – my tour for The Body in the Blitz is done! Thank you to everyone who came along and made it so special. I had a wonderful time and I hope you did too!

I’m now resting from events until 2024 – I have to start planning Ministry 3, and then I’ll be mostly working on writing it in the spring of 2024. But in late spring/summer of 2024 I’ll be back out on the road for the 10th anniversary of Murder Most Unladylike! Please be patient until my tour dates are announced – I always try to get to as many parts of the UK and Ireland as possible, but of course I can’t always visit your town or city.

If you want more from me in the meantime, here are a couple of articles that have been recently published – one on my autism diagnosis and what it’s made me realise about the books I write, and one on the challenges of writing The Body in the Blitz. And I’m over on Instagram, TikTok and Tumblr if you want to ask me anything or see what I’m up to.

And if you haven’t read The Body in the Blitz yet – might I suggest that it makes a great Christmas present? There are still some signed copies over at WH Smith online, and I also left plenty of signed copies behind at all the stores and towns I visited.

Keep reading, keep detecting, and Detective Society Forever!
