Brian McGilloway recommends

There Came A-Tapping (2025)
Andrea Carter
"Devoured this in two sittings. Wonderful evocation of a small village community and a hugely atmospheric mystery with a creeping sense of dread which builds to a satisfying, surprising conclusion. Not to be missed."

Truly, Darkly, Deeply (2022)
Victoria Selman
"Gripping from the opening page, it ratchets up the tension while constantly forcing the reader to question what they think they know. A compulsive and hugely satisfying read."
