I’d like to thank everybody who turned out for my event yesterday at EIBF. I hope you all enjoyed it for I sure as hell did.The event was made all the more fun by my excellent chairperson, my good friend Peter Guttridge, no slouch himself as a crime writer. If you haven’t sampled his Brighton series, you should. Those who were there will know because I told them and those who weren’t are learning now, that he and I will be on stage again on September 15, at Bloody Scotland, out nation’s first dedicated crime-writing festival, where we will be joined by the great Anne Perry, a genuine international bestseller.

Thanks also to Nick, Roland, Esme and everyone else in Charlotte Square for making the world’s biggest book festival a success for yet another year.
