Ever wish you hadn't started something? Sometime last
week, I did what I often do when work isn't going too well and I'm

a Tweet from @Scarlitfest about the forthcoming "Bloody Women"
panel I'm doing with Val McDermid and Ann Cleeves.
"I'm getting an urge to buy a new red outfit for the Bloody
Women panel" I Tweeted. 'What do you thi...

Fantastic book! Loved that it was a follow up to Bolton's last book, Now You See Me, with characters Lacey Flint and Mark Joesbury. Maybe this is the beginning of a series?!?!

This psychological thriller was totally riveting, and I found myself unable to put it down, while being horrified at the events that were unfolding!
Detective Constable Lacey Flint and Detective Inspector Mark Joesbury have a history together, so c... " Read more of this review » |

I’m a big fan of Mo Hayder, particularly her Jack Caffery/Flee Marley series, but this stand-alone didn’t quite hit the spot for me. Hanging Hill is the story of two sisters, estranged for many years but drawn together by the brutal murder of a teena...more |

“Over two centuries of growth and majesty reduced to stumps and I think it was the first time I ever saw a grown man cry.” I had an unusual experience the other day. I simple could not face another crime novel. I’d had enough of missing children, scr...more |

This was my first Peter James book and it's not difficult to see why he's popular. The word grip is particularly appropriate because the story-line certainly grabs hold of the reader at the outset and doesn't let go. It begins with a road traffic acc...more |

“Every time Tom was tempted to turn back, he made himself think of his brother. Joe, who he sometimes thought had been sent to earth to make his life miserable, who had been a complete pain from the day he was born, who was always getting his own way and who he fantasized about killing at least once a week. Joe, who he really didn't think he could live the rest of his life without.”

“Scared by the noise, Millie looked down at her brothers. Then she held out both arms and Tom's stomach turned cold. She was going to jump to him, like she did from the back of the sofa. She was going to jump, confident that he'd catch her, like he always did.”
