Worthy companion to the Morse and Endeavour series
This catalogue of the various series (TV, radio, stage) is a valuable database of interesting commentary and analyses. It does, of course, contain spoilers but for Morse aficionados, this book adds immensely to the story. Hopefully future editions will add similar qualitative information on the Lewis series too.

Kind of a casual account, but still satisfied my desire for more information on the books, the TV show, with interesting tidbits throughout. Definitely for fans of Endeavour...
