Some of the names in Crisscross weren't little references/homages to/from certain people you (FPW) know, were they? You know, Hutch and Barry and whatnot?

Or is this just wishful thinking? After all, no more coincidences...

Great book, by the way, as usual.

SPOILER BELOW...
















Loved the little reference to "coincidence" in the news bulletin at the end. What a fantastic finish to things in this novel...and yet the overall plot that has been developing since Conspiracies is more ominous than ever.

Thanks a lot!!

Talking of character names in books, have you ever auctioned a name in a book, Paul? If so, who, and if not, would you consider it?

It would be pretty easy to auction off "Dave". Now "Biggles", on the other hand? At least I wouldn't be in a bidding war, unless Ian Anderson got wind of it, anyway.

I'd say the same for my own name, but there *is* that Barry Hoffman fellow...oh wait, maybe that's where the name came from.

*walks away, grumbling* Just when I thought I was special...
