Fatal is another one of those books from a genre I don’t usually read, but this is the year for broadening my horizons, and I’m glad I did because Fatal was really enjoyable! Fatal is the second book to feature characters Franny and Alfie – I didn’t know that going in and it didn’t really…

A Murder, but not really a mystery – The Hunting Party Review
Upon hearing the premise of The Hunting Party I was instantly excited and intrigued. It’s a murder mystery set in the Scottish Highlands. And guess where your girl lives? Well…not quite in the Highlands, but Scotland! I kind of felt, reading the synopsis, that it was going to be a more grown up version of One Of Us…
Stranger Danger has never been so dark or sexy! – Good Samaritans Review

Drugs, Gangs & Violence – Black Water Review
Black Water is a debut novel from Cormac O’Keeffe and is set in Dublin and centres on a gang that terrorizes the local community around the canal. It’s no secret that I’m not the biggest fan of crime novels – I don’t know what it is, but they usually don’t do it for me. However…
An ending that’ll stick with you! The Chalk Man review
The Chalk Man was another one of those books that I’d seen all over bookstagram and knew I had to get. I’d heard that this book was brutal, hard-hitting and completely fucked up. Well…it might have been brutal for those who are timid in nature or new to crime/thriller books, it certainly hits, but not…

You have one true love in this world. Just one…sort of – The One review
How far would you go to find the one? The One is a mild thriller with great characters and a good plot, but what else?
