Badgers, eh? Any chance of a pic?
Coming soon, Roy; my camera died on me as I was uploading pictures… I’ll get one posted today if I’m lucky.
They look pretty neat.
Thanks for listing my books. I wanted to let you know that the Jani Kilian series started with Code of Conduct, which was published in 1999. Rules came next. Endgame is #5.
Woops, sorry about the mis-information, Kristine.
I did actually realise the new one was #5 a bit later, but forgot to change the entry… I’ll do it now!
Hope it’s selling well for you; any news of a sixth?

I won’t be retiring to the cottage on Cape Cod anytime soon, but all the books are still in print, which means a lot these days. Barring the inevitable unforeseen, ENDGAME is the last book in the series. I may write the odd Jani short story, but I think novel-wise, My Girl’s story is complete.

Thanks for the info.
All the best,
Mike
