Alex Grecian, the author of the Scotland Yard Murder Squad novels, gave a talk and signed copies of his new book Lost and Gone Forever at the Tattered Cover Bookstore on East Colfax Avenue in Denver last night. The books are set in Victorian London, and Grecian told his audience that growing up in Kansas, he was a voracious reader, and that much of what he read took place in Victorian England. Thus his fascination with the period. I have never read any of his books, although my office mate Peter is a big fan. I was very surprised to see how young Grecian is, especially considering he has written five books in the series. Living in Kansas, he must have started writing very early out of sheer boredom.
