Camilla Chafer The estimated publication date is circa Christmas but I'll update my website in the next couple of weeks with a definitive date.
I'm glad you like Sam; he's so much fun to write :D Thank you for reading!
Camilla Chafer I am working on Lexi #11 with the aim to release it near Christmas! I only wish I could write as fast as you read but I'm very happy to hear you're enjoying them. Thank you!

Camilla Chafer Hi Katie, this is a really good question! Ben Rafferty is an unusual character with a fun background so I'd really like to see him cause more trouble.
Next out is Deadlines (a Lexi Grave spinoff featuring reporter Shayne Winter) and A Few Good Women (Lexi 9) will be out late summer.
Camilla Chafer Hi, thanks for your question. A Few Good Women will be out late summer but I don't have a confirmed date yet. The "coming soon" page on my website www.camillachafer.com is usually the best place to check for dates.
Camilla Chafer Hi Patti, it really has been too long, and unfortunately due to issues beyond my control. The pre-orders will become available as soon as there is a solid finish date for the book, and then the editor is booked, so all our pre-production dates align. I want to make sure that the publication date is fixed so as to not cause any further disappointment. Thank you for patiently waiting.
Camilla Chafer Hi Eugene. I think you are referring to Command Indecision. Lexi didn't cheat. Fictional characters sometimes jump to conclusions about other characters that may, or may not, be incorrect. The truth unfolds in later books.
Camilla Chafer Hi Laura, it hasn't been released or put on pre-order yet. I'm sure this is disappointing as it's taken much longer than anticipated due to issues beyond my control. I really want it in readers hands asap!
Camilla Chafer Yes, definitely! I don't have an end date for Lexi (yet) as she has a lot more mysteries to solve, not to mention personal developments!
The Stella books will end with book 6.
Thank you for reading them :-)
Camilla Chafer Arcane Magic is the fifth in the series, released in June 2014. I'm glad you like the Stella books!
Camilla Chafer Never stop writing and never stop reading! So many writers get put off because they feel their writing isn't good enough, or someone unhelpfully gave a scathing critique, or that publishing books is a thing that happens to other people.
My advice is to write the book you want to read, the book you crave for enjoyment, the one you control the motivations and actions of characters. Write that book to know that a) you can b) you can craft an enticing plot c) the satisfaction of knowing you completed an entire book. Then get started on your next one, continually refining your writing style, tightening your plot, and get into your character's mindset. So long as you are writing, you are moving towards your goal and you will get there.
Camilla Chafer I'm currently writing Endless Magic, the sixth and final Stella book.
I also have several other books in various planning stages - more information on those in due course!
