A Goodreads user asked Robert Wilson:

Robert I've a question for you. I have yet to read the Falcon' novels but am enticed to do so from watching the UK version on DVD. I confess though we are trying to figure out just what it is he keeps crushing up to put into his water? Thanks!

Robert Wilson I'm sorry, Rick, but I have no idea. That was something that the producer introduced. It is supposed to be some sort of drug, obviously, but whether it's an upper or a downer I don't know and it's not clear from his behaviour what state it induces. My version of Javier Falcon would never have taken drugs. The drug-taking was the producer's 'shorthand' for 'psychological difficulties'. I hope this doesn't spoil your enjoyment of the books. All the very best, Rob.
