I really doubt it... A book like this, I think, is not big enough to receive such international coverage, but I'm happy for an audiobook.

A friend of mine who works translating books to Spanish tried to contact to the book company, the agent and John himself to translate the book to Spanish with zero success, so I bet not, it won't be translated to other languages...
You might get lucky, now and then

Depends on the market. Germany is possible, but must not automatically be scheduled at the same original release date. Could be published next spring as well.

 “As far as the sort of ending was concerned it was completely mutual between the two of us."

I hope John is a bit more realistic in the book, otherwise he's heading into Alan's dream world.

I wonder what photos John put in the book.

The book should be entitled Private Investigations ;)

It is possible. But maybe John Illsley has rarities in his archive:)
