Not sure what to say?

I was born in Morley near Leeds in 1944 and I am an Australian citizen living in Bendigo Victoria. I was made aware of Stuart's books by my cousin who was a friend of Stuart's named David Mason from Leeds. My sister and I have both purchased all of Stuart's books and we both have really loved them. We were sorry to hear about his passing.

I have read all the Charlie Priest novels over the past two years and have recently introduced a friend to them as well. They were all really really enjoyable and I am sorry Mr. Pawson has left us. My belated condolences.

I write in 2020 in lockdown. Not for the first time I have started all over again to follow Charlie Priest from the first book to the last. Stuart Pawsons writing, his dialogue and characters, remain a delight to read. I would so much have liked to know him.

Imy husband and I are re-reading Stuart Pawsons books during the Coronavirus 2020lock down. They have lifted our spirits and are just as good second time round. Thank you Stuart again. I wish we'd met. Ruth Gill

I have been introduced to the writings of Stuart, by his nephew Phil Gibson. I love the wit , humour and the world of dark crime in which he takes his readers. My only regret I never got to meet this remarkable gentleman. x Joanne Pollard

DI Charlie Priest
My deepest sympathy to Mr Pawson's family and friends. I have had many hours of pleasure and entertainment from reading The DI Charlie Priest Mysteries and I was deeply saddened to see that Mr Pawson had passed away. I will cherish his books. May he Rest in Peace.

Sad news today for me of Stuart's passing. Death is alwyas hard on the living. I just discoverd Stuart and Charlie about a month and a half ago. They both are a cut above. I was about to reach out to Stuart and thank him for the his novels. I just started novel four. Upon seeing is face for the firwst time today I know he and I are friends now. Be well Doreen.
