Does that American detective story with 'a group of names' deliberately borrowed from Blake's Seven count?
Which one's that? Do you have any details? How close are the names? Are
they
recognisable as characters too?
Barbara Paul, Full Frontal Murder--lots of name-checks, but no connection to B7. Paul also wrote an earlier book in the same series, The Apostrophe Thief. The setting is the production of a play called The Apostrophe Thief-- a tip of the hat to the missing apostrophe in Blakes7.
