Peter ... a great book and am upset that I have finished it.

I think its a medical condition when readers get to the last 100 pages. PANIC

Much enjoyed ...more than enjoyed .

Nice to see a mention of your late mother. Did you know the Dents in Malta?

I hope you get paid well for the pleasure you give.

bah a night awake and strange dreams... not nasty ones but interesting.

Goody goody read.

jm and thank you

Hi Peter, have just come back from your visit to Totton Library (front row,bright green blouse, asked if you were into S & M)!!! Confess to being a bit star struck but really enjoyed your talk...cant wait to start your latest book have saved it for my holiday so that I don't alienate/starve my family whilst I finish it! So glad you came to my part of the world, feel I have a better understanding of what makes you tick where your writing is concerned....Hope to see you again where I will have more courage and speak to you a bit more Thanks Donna.

Hi Peter, I am new to your books after being introduced to them by a friend. I have now read the entire Roy Grace series (awaiting delivery of Dead Tomorrow) in 3 weeks. I'm addicted!!!
I will try and come along on 16th as I live in Worthing. Keep writing! Thanks Sue.

Hi Peter, Dead tomorrow - Dead Brilliant! I was wondering how much of Roy's character (or, indeed, Glenn Branson's!) was actually you in disguise? He's a good ole boy isn't he?! Brilliant stuff.
ps. whatever happened to Perfect People?? Any plans to publish this?

Hi Leigh,

Thanks - certainly some of me in these two characters!!

Perfect Pepole is still a work in progress (a novel about designer babies, Jacqueline) I had to put it aside for a time to focus on Roy Grace, but will be returning to finish it sometime in the next year or so.
