A Study in Red, The Secret Journal of Jack the ripper
'A Study in Red' has this morning reached the heady heights of #16 in the Amazon.co.uk JTR bestselling listings, it's highest position yet. Yesterday it was at #41, so I'm pleased to say the least that my fictional account is doing so well at the moment, especially in such auspicious company.
I'm delighted and amazed at such a sudden surge in interest in the novel. I know my publisher will be pleased.
Whilst I know what I heard, and it sounded like a twig snapping, the cellar area was away from any external source which could produce such a sound, and there was no evidence of twigs or other such debris in the room.
As we were all stood outside the room, and having checked the room, it ruled out someone playing about.
The story of the hanging is, at this point, unverified, but did make a few of the group put two and two together. I was pretty on edge after that, but in hindsight, remain in two minds as to the cause.
I love siting in the darkness, it gets the imagination running wild.
Once on a Paranormal Investigation we were in a celler and it was dark you could not see you hand in front of your face. It was actually quite calming.
I might have known Mr. Covell would enjoy sitting in the dark. Now come on Mike, it's just your rmean Yorkshire streak kicking in. We know you don't want to pay the electricity bill. All I do in the dark is bump into things.
Then again, I forgot to ask if your investigation of the cellar produced any positive results.

A review both in the WS Journal And Amazon will following shortly. Very well deserved. Would have done it tonight but i am sitting in the darkness - maybe something to do with your book??

Thanks Coral,
I really appreciate that. I'm just so delighted that you enjoyed A Study in Red so much that you are now consigned to sitting in darkness waiting for....what, I wonder? I hope the room is suitably quiet, with the finger-like tendrils of a tree in the garden gently brushing against the panes of the window, and....oops sorry! There I go again....lol

You'll find the listing for all 279 JTR books listed on Amazon in bestselling order. The list is updated regularly throughthe day so places can change very quickly. My book has now slipped down to #41, but can just as easily rise again with a few sales under it's belt.
Have just spent the whole day in the garden - reading - much to the annoyance of the better-half who was weeding.
What a great work - I thoroughly enjoyed it & couldnt put it down. As far as I am concerned it is up there with the best of JTR fiction.

Coral,
Thank you so much for your kind words regarding A Study in Red. I am thrilled that you enjoyed it so much and to receive such praise is wonderful for an author. That you rate is so highly amongst other JTR fiction is a compliment that I receive graciously and with humility.
Thank you.
If you ever have the time, and feel so inclined, I would love it if you felt kindly disposed enough to place a short review on the Amazon UK site?
Have a wonderful rest of the day in the garden. I've been weeding too today, so can imagine how hot and tired your other half must be, but then again, you did have something important to attend to after all....lol
