Will Carver recommends

The Acapulco (2023)
(Chastity Reloaded, book 1)
Simone Buchholz
"Caustic, incisive prose. A street-smart, gusty heroine. A timely and staggeringly styfish thriller."

The Hive (2022)
Scarlett Brade
"A read-in-one-go revenge thriller. Get it on your summer list."

The Rule (2021)
David Jackson
"Excellent as always. Grimy and heartbreaking in equal measure, peppered with Jackson's trademark wit and humour. May be his best yet."
