I am assuming that this also means that David Suchet has 2 more roles to fulfill!

I look forward to reading this book!  I wonder if "Capture of Cerberus" is substantially different in plot from the story of the same title in "The Labors of Hercules..." perhaps David Suchet will have another episode to be film.  That way, the "lost story" "The Lesmurier Inheritance" could be filmed in conjunction with the extra story (perhaps under a different title) to make a full-length show.  "The Mystery of the Dog's Ball" is probably too close to "Dumb Witness" in order to be filmed, although maybe not...

LOL No. BTW The first short story is called "The Mystery of the Dogs Ball" the inspiration for Dumb Witness & the second one is "The Capture of Cerberus"
