Stephen Booth recommends
Cold Dawn (2022)
(DCI Castle, book 2)
James Ellson
"An exciting new addition to the world of crime fiction."
Life Ruins (2019)
Danuta Kot
"Life Ruins has all the elements I love in a novel - complex characters, an insidious underlying menace, and haunting landscapes. This dark story will suck you in from the first page."
One Last Prayer (2019)
(DCI Yorke Thriller, book 1)
Wes Markin
"An explosive and visceral debut with the most terrifying of killers. Wes Markin is a new name to watch out for in crime fiction, and I can't wait to see more of DCI Yorke."
