The Midnight Hour (2024)Eve Chase"An exquisitely-written, immersive mystery full of loss and longing and boho glamour with a sharp undercurrent of darkness. Brings back to life a Notting Hill that has long since disappeared."The Book of Secrets (2024)Anna Mazzola"Dark, viscerally-atmospheric, richly-imagined. The Book of Secrets is steeped in period detail, political intrigue and moral murkiness. Few writers bring the sordid stench of history to life quite like Anna Mazzola."

Activate your 'do not disturb' because you will NOT be able to stop reading until you turn the last page." All Of Us Are Broken (2023)(DS Saul Anguish, book 2)Fiona Cummins"Fearless. Visceral. Heartbreaking. Fiona Cummins takes a deep dive into the brutality and the humanity that coexist inside each and every one of us."
