Joseph Knox recommends

Oxblood (2022)
Tom Benn
"If I read a better novel than Oxblood in 2022, it'll be a blinding year for fiction. Tom Benn, please take a bow. Everybody else, please take note."

The Second Cut (2022)
(Rilke, book 2)
Louise Welsh
"One of the most enjoyable mysteries I've read this year, The Second Cut had me from the word go. Rilke's world feels rife with possibilities for dark doings - and Welsh's writing is fresh, funny, fearless and fun."

The Key in the Lock (2022)
Beth Underdown
"A smouldering gothic mystery that slowly envelopes you, The Key in the Lock is a novel of repressed desire and well-tended grief - getting to the very heart of the grudges we hold against ourselves."
