He is briefly mentioned in Jane's Away as having had a sudden major career change, which will unfold in the new novel (working title Happy Days). Roger, Jane and Alfie will also make a brief appearance! (less)

Added to a kitchen that looked like a bomb site and a day full of chores, I suddenly had a mad urge to book myself on a flight to Paris and not tell them where I was! Which made me wonder: what would it take for me to actually do that and what would my husband do if he had to carry the mental load of the family? Would it all fall apart or would they function without me? Once I worked through the idea, I knew that Jane would be too dutiful to leave Roger in the lurch, unless she discovered something about his past that made her see red. That's when the plot and the characters came together for me.(less)
