Peter Boland answered Jeffrey Chang's question: I really enjoyed reading The Charity Shop Detective Agency—it's just as captivating as The Thursday Murder Club (I hope you don't mind the comparison!). Will this book series be adapted for the screen? Also, did you have specific actresses in mind as inspirations for the characters while writing the books? Thank you, Jeffery. I love my books being compared to The Thursday Murder Club! It would be my dream for it to be turned into a TV series! I'd love Harriet Walter to play Fiona, Sophie Thompson to play Daisy and Zara Ramm to be Partial Sue with Lesle See Full Answer

Quotes by Peter Boland (?)

“Уже хорошо отработанным приемом они встали рядом, точно так же, как когда взламывали дверь в магазин Корзинщика, сформировав треугольник. Сью с Фионой встали под прямыми углами друг к другу, закрывая своими телами Дэйзи, которая, повернувшись к шкафчику, присела, сделав вид, будто завязывает шнурки. Фиона, болтая со Сью, как бы между прочим должна обронить кодовую фразу: «яблочный крамбл», как только горизонт будет чист. В качестве двойного уровня защиты Сью должна подтвердить, что все действительно безопасно и с ее стороны, и сказать «с кремом».”

“Мы не ожидаем, что злодеяние свершится часов в одиннадцать утра или когда дети побегут из школы к газетному киоску, потому что мы вполне естественно чувствуем себя в безопасности, когда светит солнце, а люди занимаются своими обыденными делами. Но это только ощущение. Ложное чувство безопасности.

Опасность таится и в большой группе людей. Зло существует и днем.”
― Peter Boland, Death at the Dog Show
