Things are heating up. The crimes are becoming more baffling; someone’s not saying something for some reason (there’s a cover-up), but Jack and Bax are determined to put a stop to someone’s evil game before it’s too late. It’s already too late for some, and the pressure is on from both London police forces. To top it all, I think I have invented Jack’s ultimate sparring partner, the evil genius who will hound him for the rest of his career, and probably afterwards. Someone who may appear in the next story, or who may vanish for a while, only to resurface later…
As you might gather, ‘A Depraved Indifference’ is really taking shape, and I am now into the final reel. There are still roughly 25,000 words to go (at least) to bring the story to whatever conclusion it will have, but I am up to 73,000 words and, at last, Jack and his men finally have some information they can work on. The next big clue will be an invitation, but before I get there, I need to investigate something that has happened at St Dunstan’s Church, Stepney.

That will be as soon as I have posted this and made another cup of tea. Then, I will continue with chapter twenty-four. Soon, I’ll have to set about writing the blurb and thinking of a cover. Gosh, this being a full-time author thing makes for a great life!
PROMO
As for a special promo this week, maybe you could throw some attention and love to a set of:
LGBTQIA+ Historical Romance novels from various authors.
The promoters say that the kind of Historical romances that qualify will be:
– a book that ends in a HEA or HFN
– set before 1950
– main characters are LGBTQIA+
Well, made for Clearwater or what? I’ve entered Deviant Desire and Finding a Way into this one. I couldn’t add the Larkspur Series, because I could only put in two books, but Larkspur runs on from Clearwater, so people will find it on their own – if they make it through the 10 Clearwater stories, which I hope they do.
There are 39 titles to check out.
