The Expectant Detectives (2023)
(Expectant Detectives, book 1)
Kat Ailes
"Kat Ailes nails small town cosy crime in her debut novel. From the first page, I was hooked. I laughed an awful lot; the writing is so clever and funny. I really loved this book."
The Mysterious Case of the Alperton Angels (2023)
Janice Hallett
"A masterclass. It's exactly what you've come to expect: compelling written and utterly addictive. It's funny, dark, and the puzzle comes together brilliantly at the end."
The Hike (2022)
Susi Holliday
"The Hike is exactly what you expect from Susi Holiday. The characters are complex and well-written, the setting is picture perfect and so well described you feel like you are there. The twists and turns are endless and wind their way to a ferocious climax! I love Susi's writing, and already cannot wait for what comes next!"
