    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…

    Deity by Matt Wesolowski | Blog Tour Review

    February 5, 2021 /

    Make sure you are sitting down, and you have your seatbelt properly connected.  Deity is a frank and brutal look at the evil within.  It’s shocking and it is an investigation on how celebrities are put upon a pedestal, they become godlike, a deity.  They rely upon fans to be their shield; their security fence and money and infamy makes them untouchable.  Their depravity goes under the radar and accusations can easily disappear behind the wall of yes men, the best lawyers that money can buy and loyal fans that will attack anyone that says anything discriminatory against their idols.  It’s a twisted and intelligent story that makes Matt Wesolowski…

    Review| Call Me Star Girl By Louise Beech

    June 12, 2020 /

    Call Me Star Girl.  An intriguing title if ever there was one.  A girl comfortable in the dark.  A girl that ultimately becomes a product of her upbringing.  Tragedy, survival, and a precious memento that brings light into the darkest of days.  No childhood is perfect and for that matter neither is any mother.  Hell, I’ve made mistakes in my journey as a mother but never for one second have, I ever imagined abandoning any of my children.  This narrative was enticingly chilling – imagining a young impressionable child being left alone in the world longing for that connection with a parent and instead being faced with the selfishness of…

    April 1, 2020 /

    You know you are in trouble when your first thought after finishing an epic book is how on earth are you going to review it?  How on earth can I do it justice?  Never has dust been so visible.  I am Dust is outstandingly perfect! This was an amazing read.  This is a book that you don’t want to review straight away.  You need to take a breather and relish in the absolute mastery that is I am Dust.  It is a story that envelops your soul, becomes at one with your psyche and knows at your senses.  This book flows so beautifully that it speaks to you on a…

    Blog Tour: Mexico Street (Chas Riley #8) by Simone Buchholz

    March 11, 2020 /

    Mexico Street, where the atmosphere is buzzing and the air is smoking, quite literally!  It reminds me of a slogan that should be on the city’s signs.  The title hides the depravity and the greed that is Hamburg’s underbelly.  It’s a novel that packs a seriously kilter throwing punch.  Gangster families.  Strong women.  Forbidden love.  it investigates the complexities of whether good truly dominates over evil or whether that is just a fabricated construct to give us hope.  Be prepared to freshen up those pearly whites because this is a novel with bite!     We open with a bang or more accurately a scorch.  There’s a car on fire in…

    March 1, 2020 /

    Just when you felt like the Crime Fiction genre was becoming over populated with not much variation or uniqueness to the storyline…BANG. Containment.  Vanda Symon hits you straight between the eyes for a killer blow.  It was a refreshing change to be transported some idyllic.  You know what they say – a change is as good as a rest.  Aramoana Beach.  Just uttering those words feels tranquil.  Set the scene.  Golden sands, turquoise seas, glittering horizons, the sun beating down on your chest, the warmth between your toes.  Sounds heavenly, doesn’t it?  Be prepared to have that dream shattered when a cargo ship blights that landscape.  Things get out of…
