Well, the good news is that we will not have to wait too long before the 6th instalment is released, the 25th October 2012 to be precise and has been titled Oscar Wilde and the Murders at Reading Gaol.
"It is 1897, Dieppe. Oscar Wilde, poet, playwright, novelist, raconteur and ex-convict, has fled the country after his release from Reading Gaol. Tonight he is sharing a drink and the story of his cruel imprisonment with a mysterious stranger. He has endured a harsh regime: the treadmill, solitary confinement, censored letters, no writing materials. Yet even in the midst of such deprivation, Oscar's astonishing detective powers remain undiminished - and when first a brutal warder and then the prison chaplain are found murdered, who else should the governor turn to for help other than Reading Gaol's most celebrated inmate?
In this, the latest novel in his acclaimed Oscar Wilde murder mystery series, Gyles takes us deep into the dark heart of Wilde's cruel incarceration."
For those who are interested Jane Avril makes her appearance in the 5th Instalment of the series, Oscar Wilde and the Nest of Vipers.
