- - - The ‘Identity Detective’ series
- - - Rose Haldane, journalist and identity detective, reunites the people lost through adoption. The stories you don’t see on television shows. The difficult cases. The people who cannot be found, who are thought lost forever. And each new challenge makes Rose re-live her own adoption story, each birth mother and father, adopted child, and adoptive parent she talks to, reminds her of her own birth mother Kate. Each book in the ‘Identity Detective’ series considers the viewpoint of one person trapped in this horrible dilemma. In the first book of the series, Ignoring Gravity, it is Rose’s experience we follow as an adult discovering she was adopted as a baby. Connectedness is the story of a birth mother, her hopes and anxieties, her guilt and fear, and her longing to see her baby again. Sweet Joy, the third novel, will tell the story of a foundling, a baby abandoned, and how the now elderly woman is desperate to know her story before it is too late. Who is Rose Haldane?

If books were real, Hercule Poriot…

Hercule Poirot… would travel with the very best Egyptian cotton sheets from Italian label Frette. And a butler to iron them, of course. Poirot has survived his reincarnation, Dr Who like, through various actors. My favourites are Peter Ustinov in the 1978 film of Death on the Nile [above] and David Suchet from the BBC drama series [below]. Buy the DVD.

‘Death on the Nile’ by Agatha Christie [UK: William Morrow] Buy now

How would other fictional characters behave, if they were real?
Mikael Blomkvist in ‘The Girl with the Dragon Tatoo’
Jack Ryan in ‘Patriot Games’
Elizabeth Bennet in ‘Pride and Prejudice’

  I don’t know that one. I’ve decided to re-read Agatha Christie in 2015, including the short stories. Happy Holidays! SD
