Hello Detectives! Less than two weeks to go now before Death Sets Sail launches, and I finally have an answer to a question you’ve been asking me for a while: how to get a signed copy of the book!

Normally I would be doing lots of signings, and visiting lots of stores to sign copies, but of course because of coronavirus I can’t do that.

So I’ve teamed up with the lovely people at Round Table Books in Brixton to offer SIGNED, PERSONALISED copies of Death Sets Sail!

If you want a copy for you or a friend, just visit their website. They have instructions on their site, but I’m going to explain it to you here as well, because it’s a little bit complicated!

  • Put the book in your basket and head to check-out as normal! When you are asked to choose between click and collect and delivery, choose delivery. Click and collect will NOT get you a signed copy I’m afraid!
  • Choose the country you want the book shipped to. This offer is for anywhere in the world, so don’t worry if you’re in the US or Australia or any other country. But be aware that your postage fee will be up to £9.10, so only do this if you’re specifically after a personalised version!
  • Make sure you put the name you want me to personalise AS THE NAME ON THE SHIPPING ADDRESS. You can put the name of whoever owns the card you’re paying with in the payment field, but I’ll be signing whatever name you enter as the person the book will be shipped to!
  • It may take a few days after publication for the book to arrive with you if you’re in the UK, and longer still if you’re in another country – but hopefully you’ll agree that a copy signed by me to you or your loved one is worth the wait!
  • There is currently NO upper limit on the number of books I’ll do this for, but order now to avoid disappointment.

… and that’s it! Happy ordering, Detectives – I’m so pleased I can offer this to you!
