|title=Dead in the Water (Campbell and Carter)
|rating=4
|genre=Crime
|summary=It was the wettest winter on record and coming up to Christmas it wasn't the floods that the residents of Weston Saint Ambrose were worried about - or even the forthcoming festivities. On his way to a call the local vet had spotted something in the river and closer inspection showed that it was a body of what he thought was a young woman. When he managed to get back to the scene and meet the police the body had disappeared, but it drifted under the landing stage of a large house down river and was spotted by a man delivering logs. The owner of the house, a reclusive writer, was shocked to realise that he recognised the girl. Inspector Jess Campbell and Superintendent Ian Campbell had to investigate the brutal killing.

|title=Low Life: The Spectator Columns
|rating=4
|genre=Autobiography
|summary=There is a story that back in 1997 there were three deaths at about the same time and God had taken the shift at the pearly gates to do the paperwork. Princess Diana came first and was quickly followed by Mother Teresa. Stories of their good works flowed out and God hated to admit it but he was little wearied. Still it was the end of his shift... but then another soul appeared. Jeffrey Bernard! It was with relief that God dashed to the bar to get the first round in... There might have been high jinx in heaven but back on earth ''Life'' was not so clear cut and even Taki Theodoracopulos was a little worried. He wrote ''High Life'' for the Spectator, but where would that be without its counterpoint, ''Low Life'' which had been written for years by Bernard? Fortunately there was an able replacement waiting in the wings.
