Looking Ahead:
a Suffolk Mystery Cycle for the Seasons
I would like to share a brief glimpse of what lies ahead in my current mystery cycle, which will ultimately be brought together as a five-book box set.
The Leiston Riddle – coming by Easter ’26
My next release, The Leiston Riddle, is scheduled to be available by Easter next year. This novel continues my interest in communities shaped as much by what they withhold as by what they reveal. It will be a story rooted in place, memory, and the unsettling persistence of unanswered questions hopefully fitting reading for a season traditionally associated with renewal and reckoning.
The Middleton Mystery – completing the five book box set
The Middleton Mystery will round out the cycle and complete the five-book box set. This concluding story is intended to draw together the thematic and narrative strands that have been quietly accumulating across the series – offering resolution without neatness, and answers that arrive with their own costs.
Taken together, these books form a loose but deliberate arc: stories connected by place, by moral pressure, and by the slow accumulation of truth. I will be sharing updates here as each release approaches, but for now, consider this an invitation to look ahead with me – season by season.
Thank you, as always, for reading.
