“It’s quite a good idea. Only for heaven’s sake don’t be like that mug in the detective story who confides all his best ideas to a friendly sort of character who turns out to be the murderer in Chapter Sixteen.”
Martin Edwards Michael Gilbert, Smallbone Deceased

Iain Cameron Williams
“We are all glamorous, some more so than others.”

Martin Edwards Michael Gilbert
