Blog Tour: Deadly Waters by OMJ Ryan
Deadly Waters was another home run for OMJ Ryan and the Detective Jane Phillips series. I had serious cover love the first time I laid eyes on its opening. It was ominous, it was secretive, and it forewarned of the threatening shadows that lurked beneath the surface. It’s the kind of story that will become etched into your mind and you can’t put the book down until that last page has been devoured. OMJ Ryan is a master storyteller that envelops you in atmospheric brilliance and a complexity that will literally tie you up in knots. His brilliance is his readers weakness and Deadly Waters did not disappoint. If I…

Blog Tour: Avenge The Dead (Frank Farrell #3) by Jackie Baldwin
Avenge The Dead is an exquisite case study on how the past never truly can stay buried. Life in the spotlight can have dire consequences. The invisible bands that hold together relationships and families can violently tear with no means to be repaired. The story paints a vivid picture of how an action change the landscape of one’s life forever. This gritty police procedural ticked all the boxes. Jackie Baldwin gently coaxed me down an unsuspecting path before setting her trap – I aimlessly walked straight into it and she wasn’t sorry a bit! I greedily lapped it up like there were no tomorrow. DS Mhairi MacLeod and DI Frank…

Wizard Ring is a tale of a magical ring. It is steeped in mystery and intrigue. It was made in Prague and it has the ability to influence events and people around it. Unfortunately, these events aren’t always positive. What would you do if you were given the opportunity to harness a rings power to change events or people’s actions? Would you grab it with both hands or would you turn it down, knowing that it’s power would likely lead to some pretty dire consequences. Navigating the waters of this decision shouldn’t be taken lightly. This is the plight that Sylvia, our main character is faced with. What will the…

Blog Tour: Cupidity by Lucinda Lamont – EXTRACT
Welcome to my stop for the blog tour, Cupidity by Lucinda Lamont. Thanks to Emma @ Damppebbles for spot on the tour. Those memories, for Martha, were to be just that. On April 22nd, 1943 life changed. It was one of those life events whereby people say you will never forget it, but it hadn’t been that way for her, she was already beginning to forget. It was one big blur, and that blur lasted for months. On April 22nd, she had been playing with Willy. She had not long bathed him. He was on his baby towel on the living room floor, and she was drying him off. Although…

Book Review: The Good Mother by Cathryn Grant
Welcome to the blog and I have a real treat for you – It’s my blog tour spot and I’m happy to be bringing my book review of this brilliant domestic thriller, The Good Mother. The Good Mother is a stark warning that we can all become products of our past. The past can haunt us, and it can keep tiptoeing back into our lives. Is it ever possible to bury the past? This premise is one that sends chills down my spine. Can darkness seep its way into Pleasantville? The characters seem to have the perfect life, the perfect husbands and children but what darkness threatens to tip the…

TRIGGER WARNING: Sexual Abuse This is the first book in a brand-new police procedural to sink your teeth into. It’s got everything that you need in your next page turner. It was with great excitement when I finally got around to reading this absolutely explosive start to what I assume to be a very successful series. I am completely in love with D.I Jane Phillip’s character. She portrayed the strong female character,…
