Ruth D'Alessandro Kate Hordern Just finished your third book and feel really sad such an interesting story had to end. I'm especially upset by your parent's deaths, so close together. You have my sincere sympathy Ruth. Thank you for the great books. I don't know what I can read now that could fill their space.
Thank to Ruth D'Alessandro for the third in the series of her wonderful books about her mother, the first female detective in Berkshire police - before Thames Valley Police was even formed.
This book followed her journey into leadership! Looking forward to reading it!
A brilliant evening! Thank you Oxted Library. Knowing who the Empress of Blandings is was one of the few answers I did get right.

The brilliant comedian and writer Spike Milligan was born Terence Milligan on this day in 1918. His influence on comedy in the 20th Century was immense. #SpikeMilligan #TheGoonShow #Q5 #Puckoon #AdolfHitlerMyPartInHisDownfall #TheBedSittingRoom #Oblomov #TheThreeMusketeers

I loved #AmericanFiction - sharp writing, great characters, the right balance of comedy and tragedy, and an astonishing insight into what us writers experience 10/10
Well this is nice for #WorldBookDay2024 Calling Sergeant Crockford is at #4 in the Emergency Services Bestsellers! Can she knock pesky Roadcraft off the top spot?

Was nice on #WorldBookDay to receive #CalingSergeantCrockford by Ruth D'Alessandro. Been waiting to finish the story and revisit characters that are like old friends. I'm sorry this is the final book (hope for more from the author). I will miss these characters #BookTwitter
