Edward Turbeville is a mystery writer from England’s ancient Forest of Dean.
His favourite authors include Agatha Christie, Evelyn Waugh, P G Wodehouse and Nevil Shute.
Edward is also a fan of the Classics, notably Cicero and Vergil. You can download his alliterative verse translation of Book III of the Aeneid from iBooks.
It was a fascinating experience writing this novel, once again researching the waterways of England and the ancient dialect known as Thieves' Cant.
The Pick takes place three years after The Lock, with Perry back in Oxford once again.
I hope to publish the third and final instalment, The Key, in 2024. It takes place a further three years on, and will finally reveal the mystery of Perry's past.
