Frank, I always associate you and Maxine as a pair of generous souls. You helped me out when I started my Detectives Beyond Borders blog, and Maxine posted its first-ever comment--announcing that she had come to my blog through yours.
ReplyDeleteIt won't surprise you to learn, given Maxine's love of books, that when we met for the first time, it was for lunch at the cafeteria of the British Library in London.
