A Message From Welsh Crime Writer Stephen Puleston - Choosing The Title
Hi from Wales
I hope that you’re all keeping safe and well in these uncertain and difficult times.
Times Like These, the fourth Inspector Marco novel was launched last week, and I’m really pleased with the reviews and comments from readers.
“At times I couldn’t turn the pages quick enough. ‘Times Like These’ is superbly written …” 5* Amazon review
“Mr Puleston has done it again and written a great well thought out book but also incorporated what is happening in the real world to help keep things feel real.” 5* Amazon review

Choosing the title
During May a cover version of the Foo Fighters song Times Like These reached number one in the charts. It was performed by the charity supergroup Live Lounge Allstars. Dave Grohl of Foo Fighters who wrote the song referred to the lyrics as - ‘they're about hope and love and compassion’.
The song title and the lyrics seemed to resonate with the difficulties we were all facing.
I’m a Foo Fighters fan and Times Like These is a great song so once I’d settled on the title I didn’t contemplate anything else.

Cardiff – the capital of Wales
Detective Inspector Marco is based in Cardiff, the capital city of Wales.
The city’s history goes back to the Roman era. Since the end of the nineteenth century Cardiff’s success and prosperity were built on exporting coal from the South Wales valleys. The docks of the city brought in many people from all over the world creating a cosmopolitan and varied community.
I've added some photographs of Cardiff to a section about the city on my website – Marco’s Cardiff.
