🎬 I'm good to you. Here's another old movie recommendation.
If you love '50s French crime noir movies, with gorgeous femme fatales, big cars, rainy streets, smoky nightclubs, and bitter detectives, then Le Désordre et la Nuit (The Night Affair) is for you.

🐦‍⬛ It may be dark and miserable this morning, but my Maltese Falcon bookends look suitably film noirish in the half light, so that pleases me 🐦‍⬛

✍️ It's a busy time at the moment. I have a Trial By Jury event next week, lots of background work going on in preparation for May's book launch, and I've been asked to appear at a book festival in the summer, for which I'm preparing a brand new Trial By Jury - right out of an Agatha Christie novel!

✍️ This quote from Agatha Christie perfectly matches my thought process while researching my upcoming book about Jersey's only unsolved murder.
I spent a great deal of time using a pattern analysis tool developed by the FBI to filter evidence, coincidence and possible persons of interest.

🎬 Time for another old movie recommendation

Swimming Pool is a 2003 mystery thriller, starring Charlotte Rampling
A British crime writer travels to her publisher's summer house in France to work on her next book. However, a murder turns this into a clever slow burner
And nothing is at is seems...

🔍 The most interesting (and creepy) part of my weekend's research in Glasgow was tracking down & going inside the rundown, old house in which a gruesome murder took place
How did the killer get in? Did the victim know him? And who was the man who rushed past on the stairwell?
All will be revealed...

✍️ It's that time of year when us poor struggling writers receive our public lending rights royalty payment from the British Library, a few pence each time someone borrows one of our books from a library. Thank you 🙏 My most borrowed books are:
1. The River Runs Red
2. Perthshire's Pound of Flesh
