Here’s a brief update.
I have been quiet for the last couple of weeks because I have had my head down over the new project, ‘The Delamere Dilemma’, the Delamere Files book 12, and so far, it’s going really well. (Hope that hasn’t just jinxed things.)
This is going to be an ‘end of season finale’ along the lines of the other two end-of-series finales, ‘The Clearwater Inheritance’ and ‘The Larkspur Legacy.’ You can see a pattern here… ‘Inheritance’ cemented Clearwater’s future, and that of his ‘crew’ and led into the Larkspur series. ‘Legacy’ was a treasure hunt that tied up strands of stories that had been running since Deviant Desire, and set the future of the Larkspur Academy and the characters we’d met through that series. The Delamere Dilemma has an even bigger task, and it’s proving to be deliciously tricky.
The story takes us right back to the events of Deviant Desire for a reason I can’t tell you without giving things away. And that’s the fun part. How to have my Delamere men investigate events of previous stories without giving away spoilers to those who may not have read those books yet? It’s a thin line, and there will have to be some ‘going over’ of previous events from the Clearwater series. But, hopefully, this won’t put anyone off going back to day one of all 30 books if they haven’t already read them.
What’s it about, and what am I researching for it? Those are also things I don’t want to give away just yet, but if you want to search for your own clues, take a look through the history books and see what was going on in London in 1894. I will offer you one clue.
