Love it when an English word is thrown up like a fish leaping from a fjord.<br />Am working on my very first novel, Bonfire of the Past. Not an easy task but surprisingly enjoyable all the same. My respect for anyone who ever gets anything published grows by the day. But who knows, one fine day my protagonist, Rouge Smith might find herself between two covers.

I have a fondness for the Henning Mankell crime stories, and yes, gloom is prevalent in those too, but I also love Donna Leon's Brunetti series; the sunshine and heat of a Venetian summer set the tone, as well as the focus on yummy Italian food!

Wow! The Nordic countries don't have the monopoly on murder/gloomy outbreaks though. Broadchurch has its share of gloom - though I'm loving it to pieces - and as for Midsomer Murders!
