Warren asked Robert Wilson:

Just want to say thank you for your works. I've read all but one, The Company of Strangers. I went through chemo and radiation the first half of last year. I would often wake up around 2 or 3 in the morning and go read in our nook/den for a few hours. I read a few of your works at these times and during the day as well. I thoroughly enjoyed them. My condolences on your loss. When will C. Boxer show up, again?

Robert Wilson Hello Warren, Sorry to hear about your health and I hope you've been steadily improving since the chemo and radiation. I know how tough that treatment is having seen Jane and others on her ward go through it. So well done for toughing it out. I'm glad my books helped to divert you through those sleepless hours. I recently had an email from someone who had been in jail for three years telling me how much he'd enjoyed the Falcon books with their Spanish heat and atmosphere. We writers forget that books are read in all sorts of different locations and under very different circumstances and in each case offer a different experience. Thank you for your condolences. I would love to be able to tell you that the next Boxer book (No. 4) is due any moment but both my UK and US publishers have decided not to go ahead so unless you speak German or Norwegian you might have a long wait. I'm sorry, but the numbers just didn't stack up. Clearly Boxer didn't 'speak' to enough people. I am currently working on another book set in London, Paris and Lisbon in WW2. All the very best, Rob
