Apologies for the slow reply! There is a Father Christmas novella titled "The Unpleasantness at the Battle of Thornford" published in autumn 2020. It's "non-canonical" but in the timeline would fit between "Ten" and "Nine". I'm glad you enjoyed the others novels. I'm not sure if there will be any more. But thanks for asking.

Thanks for your question and your kind words. And my apologies for the very tardy reply. I'd be delighted to continue the Father Christmas stories, but fate seems to have dictated otherwise. I'm not sure Nine Ladies will ever dance.

My favourites are the three Queen, corgis and Jane Bee housemaid books. I do wish for more of those.

Ah, poor Father Christmas! We all have harbored hopes of seeing his life move forward to new and exciting days. We long to find Tom with a love to help him past his past. Might some time make your Nine Ladies start a Merry Whirling Dervish right out of your imagination and onto the pages. For we all are interested in so many of your town's characters..

Hi Vanessa,
Thanks for asking about the "Her Majesty Investigates" series. Alas, it's unlikely there will be any more books in that series. However, if it's any help, Jane Bee (under her new, married name) has a cameo appearance in "Twelve Drummers Drumming" and a larger role in "Ten Lords A-Leaping". If you get a chance to read those, I hope you enjoy them.

If only I could write faster!

I'd be delighted to continue the series, but the publishing landscape has changed to much in the last few years, it is difficult. I'll be happy to let you know when a new installment is in the offing, but I can't say when this might be. In the meantime, thank you for asking and for your kind words.

So agree. Father Christmas and his circle of friends and family are so very likeable. Even better, the mysteries are quite good and great fun. I hope
