David Young recommends
The Seventh Victim (2023)
Michael Wood
"A twisty, gripping read takes us inside the mind of a perverted serial killer. It pulls no punches, and the final scenes come as a real shock."
Death at the Savoy (2022)
(Priscilla Tempest Mystery, book 1)
Ron Base and Prudence Emery
"This book is a flashy, exhilarating ride-fizzy as a flute of champagne, brimming with intriguing twists and turns that are at once hilarious and dark. With her background at the Savoy in the Swinging Sixties, Prudence Emery is admirably equipped to dish delicious dirt!"
