    Deadly Betrayal by OMJ Ryan | Book Review

    March 21, 2021 /

    OMJ Ryan proves that a series can only get better with every installment.  Deadly Betrayal was his most addictive outing so far.  Travelling these pages is akin to walking along a tightrope.  The fab four are back, they are more human than ever, with the fragility of the human condition pulsing at the forefront, demanding attention.  Ryan tore up the rulebook and catapulted his readers into the deep underbelly of Hong Kong and how the two countries intermingle in a frenzy before a finale that is likely to have you on edge.  The DI Jane Phillips series always feels like a homecoming, its became my favourite crime series by far.…

    Never Ask The Dead by Gary Donnelly | Blog Tour Review

    February 25, 2021 /

    The past always has a way of catching up with us and Don’t Tell the Dead by Gary Donnelly epitomise that notion.  Lace up those Nikes because you’re going to be doing some running!  Writing is such a labour of love and writing a series is doubly true.  The commitment, the research, and the psyche to get into the head of your characters time and time again requires a special kind of author.  Gary Donnelly has consistently delivered a gritty, raw, and deeply compelling crime series set in the pulsing heart of Ireland.  The atmosphere is catastrophically real, you can almost feel the elements battering you where you stand, the…

    Smoke Screen by Thomas Enger, Jørn Lier Horst and translated by Megan Turney | Review

    February 19, 2021 /

    I was a little worried about reading Smoke Screen, not because I believed that it would be a terrible read but because I just loved Death Deserved so much and wanted Smoke Screen to have that lasting impact also.  This review is the proof that this writing duo know just how to deliver time and time again.  An intriguing title, a mysterious cover and a synopsis that promises to deliver a narrative balancing on a tripwire.  Enger and Horst have penned another addition that will create a shadow on my soul and leave me hungering to visit the Scandinavian Isles.  Smoke Screen is book two in the Blixx & Ramm…

    A Killer’s Daughter by Jenna Kernan | Review

    February 14, 2021 /

    A Killer’s Daughter was a very interesting read, and it was certainly unique.  In fact, I don’t think I’ve read a plot from the child of a serial killer’s perspective before.  First, I want to talk a little about what just didn’t work for me personally. The beginning of the novel started a bit quizzically.  It felt very dark and I suddenly began to question just how the events were going to play out.  I was confused at times to how all this was going to impact the protagonist, Dr Nadine Finch.  There was a lot of repetition of past events, I’m sure it only need to be mentioned once…

    Tick Tock by Mel Sherratt | Review

    February 12, 2021 /

    Tick Tock was everything it promised…raw, gritty, and undeniably electric.  I’ve had this book on my TBR for a while now, regrettably it has taken me a while to get around to it, but I will be continuing with this series with haste.  If you love strong independent female detectives that are served with humanistic flaws, then this is going to be right up your alley.  A story with a chilling narrative, it made me look over my shoulder constantly whilst reading it.  Mel Sherratt, has an amazing skill at drawing you in, constantly whispering closer, closer.  You keep edging closer even though you know it might mean your doom. …

    Their Silent Graves by Carla Kovach | Review

    February 2, 2021 /

    Their Silent Graves is a book published by bookouture…that meant I was in!  if I had a checklist of elements that made an exceptional police procedural read then this book would have been ticked to death.  A story that has the reader on the edge of the edge of their seat and considering walking anywhere but through the woods.  If you are looking for a novel that will whittle away the hours, then you’ve come to the right place.  Their Silent Graves is the seventh book released in the DI Gina Harte series.  It’s the first one that I’ve picked up but didn’t feel that I was missing great chunks…
