Another year, another two Collins and Clark Books
Hi,
Happy new year. I've just finished writing a second edition of The Little Book of Big Management Theories. I have no other non-fiction books planned for 2017, so I'm aiming to complete the Handsworth Quartet this year.
I'm 12,000 words into A Death In Summer 1969. The third book in the series deals with local government corruption and an arsonist of great cunning who has remained below police and fire brigade radar for many years. I'm aiming to publish the book in August/September.
I also expect to finish writing the final book in the Handsworth Quartet, A Death in Autumn: 1970, around November/December with publication in early 2018. Autumn will see the return of a particularly despicable character from book one and a chase to find a serial killer who leaves no clues, has no fixed MO and seems to be always two steps ahead of the police.
As I've written elsewhere, it's my intention to continue writing about Collins, Clark and Agnes. However, what I've learnt from writing fiction is that the characters take on a life of their own. Over the course of the next two books the actions of Collins and Clark will determine their future and as yet I have no idea what that will be. They may end up remaining in the police or working as private investigators or security consultants. Drop me a line and let me know what you think.
Best wishes,
Jim
