I was recently interviewed about the latest Bruno - The Patriarch or The Dying Season, depending on your location - by the Speaking of Mysteries podcast. If you're interested, you can listen to it by clicking here.

Out of curiosity, why the different titles in different countries?

It's one of the mysteries of publishing! Sometimes the publisher doesn't think the original title will do well in the new market, sometimes the title is changed because it's the same as an existing book in the new market, and I'm sure there are other reasons.

I really enjoy the way food recipes are included in the storylines of Bruno and his friends. Reading them makes me want to try and replicate at least some of them. When will the cookbook be published in the English language as my German is not sufficiently good?

We're currently looking at the possibility of publishing the Bruno cookbook in English ourselves - I can tell from the comments on this site that there is definitely a demand, but my English publisher is wary of spending on a non-celebrity cookbook, sadly. The English market is now so celebrity-driven that it's hard for publishers to break even, let alone make a profit. It's a real shame.

Yes, Bruno's love life does need a little maintenance, doesn't it? As a male fan of Bruno, I am fascinated by how popular is with female readers. Why is that, ladies?

Because he reads as a lovely considerate self taught erudite French man; he cooks (with passion), is presumably an effective lover (he keeps Pamela and others happy), loves animals - what else is there...?

I, too, am waiting for the cookbook. When will it be published in English? And why German first????

Because it was the Swiss publisher's idea - my English publishers remain unconvinced the Bruno cookbook will be a worthwhile investment, so we're now exploring other options, including self-publishing and direct sales through this website.

why did I receive a notification my subscription is cancelled - not by me, at least not intentionally.

I came across your first book in this series when it hit the shelves at Poisoned Pen in Scottsdale and have thoroughly enjoyed vicariously residing in St Denis. This latest addition -- The Patriarch -- had a special resonance since I spent several hours observing Marshal Akhromeyev and his during his visit to the 1st Cavalry Division at Fort Hood, Texas, in 1988. It was fascinating and his comments about a variety of things was illuminating on several levels.

I have a question.

I understand your frustration, and it is something I've brought to the attention of my publishers.
