This is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to real characters, living or dead, is purely coincidental. Many of the places mentioned in the book actually exist. The Shroppie Fly at Audlem for example is an excellent place to spend a sunny afternoon. Many places do not exist of course, such as the Eden Leys complex, which has never and hopefully, will never exist. Rumours persist that operations were carried out on live Alzheimer’s and dementia patients at the Porton Down site in Wiltshire. Do they still? Let us hope not.

Please don’t write and tell me that Mostyn Station doesn’t exist either. I know that, but for the purpose of this book it does. Artistic licence if you will. The station was actually closed in 1948, though some of the buildings remain to this day, and trains still regularly rumble through. Perhaps one day with a more user-friendly attitude to rail, the station might re-open, and if and when it does, let us hope it avoids any fatal accidents. Similarly I know that the Chester Police HQ is no longer in the city centre, but for this series of books, it is!

MI7 really did exist, though it is reported to have been closed after World War II. Could it still exist today? Of course it could. Whether it does or not, I shall leave you to decide.

Special thanks are due to Anne Sellars RMN who knows more about people with dementia type illnesses than most of us, after nursing such patients for more than twenty-five years. She put me right on technical matters and also thanks are due for her proofreading skills, advice, and encouragement.
I hope you enjoyed the book. If you did, you might like to know there will be another Inspector Walter Darriteau thriller released next year. I am very excited about that and so is he! Please look out for it.
There are also three other Walter Darriteau cases already out there – “The Sound of Sirens”, “The Twelfth Apostle” and “Kissing a Killer” – all available in paperback and as ebooks. Please check those out.
When you have a few spare minutes I’d hugely appreciate it if you could place a brief review of this book on any of the main bookselling sites. That would be very kind of you, and it would help me enormously.
