I'm breakfasting with Julian Clegg and his gang tomorrow at the BBC Radio Solent Studios

It's an early start tomorrow morning because I'm off to the Julian Clegg Christmas Party Show at BBC Radio Solent studios in Southampton, broadcast live from 6.30am to 9.30 am.  I'm not sure what time I will be on air but it will be sometime after 7.45 am. 

It will be coffee and croissants and the chance to meet up with  the guests Julian has featured on his very popular breakfast radio show throughout the year, plus of course see again Julian's delightful team of Talia and Lewis. It's always a good atmosphere. I hope to post some photographs of the event later tomorrow.

Before that it's marzipan the Christmas cake time, finish off some bits of correspondence and then on with some writing.

Over the last year, I have been piecing together the evidence of the Martha Giles murder which hit the headlines in the national newspapers in 1959 but I’ve finally hit a brick wall after being denied access to certain ‘closed’ files in the National Archives.

On the evening of 11 February 1959 she left her home to go on night duty but she never showed up for work. No one questioned why, or where she was. Her body was discovered the ...

We're having a bit of a dilema in choosing the jacket for the next DI Andy Horton novel, due out in March 2008. Comments, thoughts, views, welcome. Option 1 above centre, Option 2 on the left, and Option 3 on the right. I know which one I prefer but would like to know what others think. Take your pick! Below, is the back jacket blurb for Deadly Harbour : THE NEW MARINE MYSTERY FEATURING HORTON AND CANTELLI. DEADLY HARBOUR When a woman is found brutally murdered and abandoned in Langstone Harbour DI Andy Horton is appointed to lead the investigation, but not for long, it seems, if Superintendent Uckfield, head of the newly formed Major Crime Team, has his way. Horton is given a week to find a killer before being shunted off the case. Overlooked for promotion and cold-shouldered by Uckfield, Horton now has a point to prove as well as a complex murder case to solve. Not only that, but a spate of antiques thefts plaguing the city of Portsmouth and pressure from his estranged wife...
