Number six in the DCI Tom Caton Manchester Crime Series has been out there as a Kindle version for just one week and is already selling well. The paperback version is in the system but I'm still waiting for it to appear in the Amazon Book Store. For those of you who love the feel of a proper book I'll let you know as soon as it does appear.
I'm hoping that the fact that it's set in The USA as well as Ireland and the UK will help to bring my work to the attention of the many American readers who are into British Crime Fiction. That isn't the reason I chose to do that however. The maternal side of my family were from Kilfeighney North, and then Listowel - both in County Kerry. Some emigrated to England, others to Canada, and the Catons to America. I've always been fascinated by that and the historical genealogy in this book is in some ways a tribute to those roots and their spirit of adventure.
But it is still a crime thriller in the DCI Caton mould. I hope you enjoy it.
Next stop final proofing of The Cave - my first crossover novel for teens,young adults and adults. And then on to writing chapter two of the next Tom Caton novel set in the murky world of Premiership football. Watch this space.
