    Police Procedural

    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…

    End of the Line by Robert Scragg | Blog Tour Review

    January 28, 2021 /

    End of the Line is book four in the Porter & Styles detective series.  I haven’t read the first three books, but I will be rectifying that as soon as I’m able to.  The opening of the book gives the reader a glimpse into what they can expect and that is adrenaline.  Its everything that I would expect to experience as a police officer serving the Metropolitan area.  There’s spice, a huge dollop of action and all surrounded by the humanity of humankind.  Robert Scragg certainly knows how to write people, as in, they are more than their identity as an officer of the law.  They have feelings and emotions…

    Out in the Cold by Stuart Johnstone | Review

    December 20, 2020 /

    I have been so incredibly lucky as of late in my crime novels, but Out in the Cold surpassed all my expectations.  It has an original plot, intriguing main characters and a writing style that is so sharp that it threatens to slit your throat.  If I thought that it couldn’t get better than that opening chapter, I’d be sorely wrong.  Have you ever found yourself in an untenable situation at work?  Well Detective Sargent Colyear has a master’s in it.  A situation that wasn’t his doing but takes the rap for it, nonetheless. Out in the Cold (although I’m not a huge fan of comparisons) could have easily been…

    All Fall Down by M.J. Arlidge | Book Review

    December 12, 2020 /

    When I was invited to read All Fall Down a few months ago, I had no idea what I was in for.  I haven’t read Arlidge’s work before or heard of this series BUT…within a few breaths and a few pages I knew this was going to be a series that I would come to binge read.  A story with a strong female sleuth with a tattered background but always focussed on the end result.  Six hours later and I was guts deep into a compulsive story and I was 100% in.  All Fall Down is an ambitious story that fulfils on everything it promises. How on earth do you…

    Crime Thriller

    The Resident by David Jackson | Review

    December 9, 2020 /

    When I first requested an advanced readers copy of The Resident, I was very excited!  There has been so much hype on book-twitter and a lot of blogger friends loved it.  I am very weary of getting involved in hyped books because I really don’t want to be disappointed.  I expected a strong psychological thriller but boy…this beast packed a spine shattering punch!  Imagine my delight when from chapter one onwards – I knew this was going to be the kind of dark and depraved that I live for in a crime novel.  The title and that mind-blowing cover set my imagination crazy.  Imagine a serial killer actually living in…

    Whispers In The Dark by Chris McDonald | Blog Tour

    November 15, 2020 /

    If you are looking for a light-hearted read, it’s probably best to find something other than Whispers in The Dark.  If you are looking for something outstandingly dark, raw and visceral, then you have most definitely come to the right place.  A story that drips with revenge, guilt and a strong female character that isn’t afraid to go for the jugular.  The story instantly pulled me in with its dark prologue.  A pulsing beat that threatened to crack and spill its guts for the reader to witness, to experience.  It was intoxicating.  The scene is set and once again Chris McDonald nails the shocking prologues. We are reintroduced to the…
