Mr. Brown.. Helix has by far.. Become my favorit book that i have ever read.. I have not been able to put it down since the momant i started reading it. The way the story is portrayed by every different charecter is amazing, especcaly since they are all alien to eachother. I love this book.. If there was a sequil to it, i would love to know what happens after. You are now in my top 3 favorit writers.
Thanks, Jeremy. I’m delighted you like the book. Very best.
You need help. I’m reading Murder at the Loch, copyright 2016. In Chapter 3, your main characters are traveling to the castle from Inverness. In one paragraph you state ” Their headlights were assisted by the illumination of a full moon…..”. Four short paragraphs later you state “Langham peered out at the pelting downpour,…..”. You need to hire a better editor to catch these mistakes.
Why is this a mistake, L. Nickels? A full moon shining through cloud and pelting rain are not mutually exclusive, at least not here in Scotland. Perhaps weather is different in the US? I don’t think I need help.
Murder by the Book great read, hope you write more murder mysteries.
Sci-fi not my thing, sorry
Hi Leonie,
Delighted you liked Murder by the Book. Thanks for getting in touch. I’ve written four more in the Langham and Dupre series. The fifth, Murder Takes a Turn, will be in in the UK next March and in the US in July.
Hi Mr. Brown.
I live in Houseys Rapids, Ontario, Canada. Population 301. The buzz of th virus can be heard over the horizon but really doesn’t bother us much.
Thanks to our interlibary loan system I get an ocassional call from Meagan or Kate to say one of your books have come in. Can’t help but wonder if you’re more than one person cause the genres are so different.
Thanks to all of you for your company on these long winter nights.
Yours aye, Wilf Curtis
Ha! Thanks for this, Wilf. It’s nice to know that my books keep you company. I assure you that I am only one person, though I have a few different hats. Houseys Rapids, pop 310 – that’s even smaller than the village where I live in the Borders, Scotland: Cockburnspath, with a population of around 500. Very best, Eric.
Should have written “thanks to you all”.. “Thanks to all of you” sounds like you are either a hive entity or very large.😜
