My next crime novel in the Somerset Murder Series, POISON ON THE LEVELS, has just been accepted by Joffe Books and should be published in 2020, so watch this space if you are interested.

My thanks to Jasper Joffe at Joffe Books for all his support and advice since I became one of his authors, and I am absolutely delighted with the fact that my books have now achieved 100,000 sales - all credit to this excellent go ahead publisher.

But I would also particularly like to register a sincere thank you to all my loyal readers, for without you, I would not be anywhere. My best wishes to you as 2019 draws to a close and may I wish you all a sincere Happy Christmas and New Year.

David Hodges
