For anyone like Alison, who has just discovered The Reaper series, and would like to have a chat about the books or perhaps get their copies signed, I will be attending a charity day at Makeney Hall Hotel in Makeney near Belper on Saturday 29th January from 12.30pm until about 3pm. The event is in aid of Breast Cancer Reasearch and Queen's Hospital Scanner Appeal - very worthy causes. I hope to see you there.

A big thank you to all fans and new readers of The Reaper and The Disciple for coming to see me and chat at Derby Waterstone's just before Christmas. The weather was a bit bleak and many of you made a big effort to get there so thanks again and my best wishes to all for a Happy New Year.
