Books containing stories by Ed James
Ed James recommends
Blood Like Mine (2024)
(Blood , book 1)
Stuart Neville
"A visceral, cinematic masterpiece. Silence of the Lambs filtered through the lens of prime Stephen King. You won't read a more gut-wrenching novel this year."
All Of Us Are Broken (2023)
(DS Saul Anguish, book 2)
Fiona Cummins
"Devising an engaging high-concept hook is one of the hardest things an author can achieve. Executing it well is tougher yet. This book made me cry. Twice. Highly recommended."
The Hike (2022)
Susi Holliday
"The Hike is a dark journey into the past and the future. Full of twists and shocking reveals, I loved the beautifully evocative landscape and the well-drawn characters."
