Autorenporträt
I have just completed the third in the Elliot Todd Mystery series based around a bookshop owner and inspired my own time as a bookshop owner and manager of more than 30 years. Central to the story are the characters of Elliot the bookshop owner, his main employee, Esther, the subject of his unrequited love, the eccentric but loyal Aggie, his dynamic but interfering Mother Elizabeth, his history lover friend Cameron. They are written, I hope, with warmth and humour and contain many a literary allusion.
