My work-in-progress includes a fox in an urban setting. While I've seen it for myself, in Dublin, I wasn't sure how rare this was. Then Larry the Cat, who guards 10 Downing Street, made the news. YouTube link above.

BOOK CLUB QUESTIONS for WICKED AUTUMN, the first Max Tudor novel:

BOOK CLUB QUESTIONS for WICKED AUTUMN, the first Max Tudor novel:

From the author’s character descriptions, which actors would you choose to portray Max Tudor, Awena Owen, DCI Cotton, or any of the villagers?
Do you think you would enjoy living in a small village like Nether Monkslip? Or would you, like Max Tudor and Suzanna Winship, sometimes feel like a fish out of water?
If it’s true that people are the same everywhere, does Nether Monkslip remind you in any way of your own neighborhood?
Does the wearisome Wanda remind you of anyone you’ve ever met or been forced to work with?
Max Tudor makes a complete about-face when he leaves MI5 to become the vicar of St. Edwold’s Church in Nether Monkslip. Do you know of anyone who has made such a dramatic life change? Have you made such a switch, leaving your old life behind—or have you ever wished you could?
Of the women introduced in WICKED AUTUMN, which do you think might make a suitable wife for Max Tudor?
Crime seems to follow Max Tudor wherever he goes in subsequent books in the series—even though he became an Anglican priest to escape the violence of his past. What point do you think the author is trying to make?

Wicked Autumn by G.M. Malliet

From the author: Reposting a favorite review of WICKED AUTUMN to celebrate its being in print for well over a decade! The series continues from publisher Hachette / Little Brown in September 2023. Currently writing THE WASHING AWAY OF WRONGS, which is already available for pre-order.

"Michael Page’s reading elegantly bridges the classic and contemporary elements of this outstanding series."
