I love each and every book you write, and the way they all intermingle with each other and help each other’s force. They are fabulous books. Sorry to put you on the spot, but it was the way I read it. What about Matt, have you written another one for him? I just live the twists in those xx

Joy Ellis Hello Carole, yes, they do overlap. When I first had the idea for a crime series, I saw it as several different divisions within the same constabulary, all sharing the same Home Office pathologist and Force Medical Officers and psychologists. Then when Nikki Galena became popular I wasn't sure about writing the others, but found it worked out well. It gives me a little break from the same characters too, especially the Matt Ballards books now that he is retired from the Force. No forensics and no warrant cards to make things easier! It's a real teaser for me and I do enjoy it. So pleased you like them all, and I'm already writing the next Matt book. No rest around here! Ha-ha! xx
