  4. have read all of roberts books, i found them all an excellent read,waiting for the next one

  5. I discovered your books at the start of the first lock down in 2019 . I was hooked immediately and spent a lot of time searching for copies of all the other Erika Foster series.I have just finished reading the last one. Oh my word it was such a thrilling and gripping tale and I had to wait till the last few pages to find answers to all the mysteries.
    Splendid and I am looking forward to more news of Erika!! Meanwhile I will investigate the first story of Kate Marshall.
    Thank you Robert for taking my mind off Covid for hours and hours and making my ‘solitary confinement’ bearable.

  6. Wonderful books with amazing storey lines that take you out of yourself and make you forget your troubles. Thank you for all the happiness you bring.Joseph

  7. I’ve now read all of Roberts books and love them. Very familiar area for me as I was brought up in Beckenham and worked in London for many years.

  8. Thank you Robert,
    For the last 4 months I have been so disciplined, meditation, walk, yoga…Yesterday my neighbour left a book on my doorstep “Last Breath” well I want to thank you for no sleep last night and here it is 1:30 p.m..I am still in bed , drank a pot of tea and just finished your book. Best mystery book ever! You captivated my attention from the first page and I found the characters to be interesting and intelligent. The book also makes you question a few things..how much do you put on social media? I also thought about Bryony, and Daryl , how we dismiss people because of looks, weight, or their job description.how sometimes we take dangerous decisions because we are young and feel invincible.How we should fight, fight with all our might and not give up. This book would make a fascinating movie..
    Off to see my daughter this evening and taking the book with me…
