In the Jack Logan books there is one of the investigating team who is a wheelchair user - his role has increased as the story progresses. #MurderEveryMonday

For #MurderEveryMonday we are looking for characters who use wheelchairs. This author is famous for his Lincoln Rhyme books where the forensic scientist uses a wheelchair but in this book in the series he is joined by a new assistant who also uses one.

#MurderEveryMonday. We are looking for "the man" or "the woman" in today's challenge. I wonder what the obsession is with colour in these titles?

#MurderEveryMonday. My final collection are books where historical characters may not appear but where they, or their writings, are pivitol to the plot. Richard III gets two books (the Tey book is also referenced in the Peters which adds another layer )

#MurderEveryMonday Some more real people appearing as characters. The actress Lily Langtry in her forgotten old age, the actor Archibald Leach before he became Cary Grant and a washed up politician to whom no-one is listening called Winston Churchill

For #MurderEveryMonday this week we are looking for novels where a real life person is also a character. We start with authors who appear in other people's books. Here we have Josephine Tey, William Shakespeare and Dashiel Hammet as characters.

Today's #MurderEveryMonday was particularly challenging. We are looking for depictions of smoking. I was unsuccessful in finding any covers that met the criterion and am left with a smoking gun (look closely) and a title with smoke in it.

#MurderEveryMonday. Books with woods and trees in the title. Although I am not sure if nine elms constitutes a whole forest!!

#MurderEveryMonday is looking for places in titles. Here are two American States (I have leaned heavily on Edward Marston for this challenge as you can see)
