Hi David, I so enjoyed "Broadland" and meeting DI Tanner and DC Evans. Will you be writing more in the series? I do hope so. Best wishes, David Ward.
David Blake Hi David, thanks for the question. I've currently written six books in the series. The seventh will be out in about six weeks time and I have no plans to stop writing them.

Thanks again!

This question contains spoilers... (view spoiler)
David Blake Hi Karoline,

Thanks for your question, and sorry for the delay in coming back to you.

I must admit, Lowestoft was a bit of a geographical stretch, but I was desperate to find a town somewhere along the East Coast that didn't already have an amusement park.

I hope that makes sense.

Thanks again,

David

Why do you write about the Broads?
David Blake Hi Sarah, thanks for your question and sorry for the rather long delay in coming back to you.

Having spent just about every holiday in Norfolk for the past ten years, I simply love the Broads. I couldn't think of more beautiful but spooky place to write about.

Good morning David, Can on e pre-order your next book Three Rivers, on Amazon? Keep up this excellent series Michele Zito
David Blake Hi Michele,

Thanks for your question.

I'm afraid I've yet to put Three Rivers up for pre-order. I only like to do so when I've finished writing the first draft. That way I know I'm not going to disappoint anyone who's ordered it by having to delay publication for any reason. However, the book is progressing well, so hopefully I'll have it available within the next eight to ten weeks.

If you haven't already, you can sign up to my newsletter via the link below, which I use to announce all my publication dates.

Thanks again for writing.

All the best,

David
