Angel on the Inside (2003)
(Fitzroy Maclean Angel, book 12)
Mike Ripley
"Mike Ripley is everything I hate in other writers. His plotting, characterisation, dialogue and scene setting are superb, and he is laugh aloud funney. I am insanely jealous."
The Sherlock Effect (1997)
Raymond Kay Lyon
"I love the idea of present day crimes being solved with some of Holmes's deductive methods. Story lines are terrific."
