Sorry I'm asking so many questions! I don't have anyone else to talk to about this book[except the author himself of course haha.]When I finished it, I was immediately reminded of Crooked House by Agatha Christie. Based on your speech at the end of your book, I'm assuming you know the ending. I noticed Evelyn's personality and the little sister from Crooked house are very similar! I wonder if you feel the same?

(view spoiler)[Hey Mary Ann, I know the similarity you're getting at, but I don't necessarily think their personalities are similar. Evelyn is much more reserved and I think she's capable of a greater depth of feeling that the little girl in Crooked House. Could you please mark this question as a spoiler for me, just so somebody else doesn't stumble on it. Thanks! (hide spoiler)]

Hi Stuart, Thank you for a wonderful book! Could not get enough of it as I was reading, and had to finish it in a couple of days. I found it amusing that while reading the part at the end when you say you hope this keeps us up until 2am I looked at the clock and it read '5:22am'. Q: Did you do it on purpose that Daniel tells Aiden something logically impossible, namely that he heard something at dinner last night?

I find it ironic/eerie that I finished Seven Deaths on the dot at 2am! You've done such a great job at imitating the looming, creeping feeling of Agatha Christie's book- that the night I finished your book, I was expecting to be the next victim. And was surprised to find myself alive the next morning! Please tell me you're planning to write more Agatha Christie-esque books in the future(not another 10years omg)?

I’m sorry this book has not gotten more buzz. I thought it was brilliant. This would make an amazing book club read. Does your publisher have plans to put out a discussion/book club guide? That might give it the push it needs. Of course if more of us fans post reviews on social media that could help, too. Looking forward to your next book. Keep us posted.
