Back in the early 2000s, when I started blogging for the first time, one of the bloggers I regularly read was the crime writer, John Baker.

Like me at the time, John lived in York. He wrote a series of detective novels set in the city featuring his accidential private detective, Sam Turner.

I revisited the series last year, prompting a bit of nostalgia for times, people, and places past.

In June 2025, my first PhD paper was discussed at the university’s summer symposium. It provides a detailed introduction to the critical aspect of my PhD, exploring the autistic detective trope.

I thought I’d reproduce it on my blog for anyone who might be interested.

"This story is like a train ride, starts off with a sure pace, picking up speed, then some twists and turns to keep you guessing and wondering what happens next, all ending in a shocking display of what humans can be capable of." - Jon Gregory, author.
