A great writer knows when to deliver a juicy plot twist. But for one author, the biggest twist of all is her own murder.

With a number of hit titles and a highly anticipated movie tie-in, celebrated novelist Columbia Jones is at the top of her game. Fans around the world adore her. But on the final night of her latest book tour, one face in the crowd makes the author collapse. And by the next morning, she’s lying dead in a pool of blood.

Columbia’s death shocks the world and leaves Darian, her daughter and publicist, reeling. The police have nothing to go on—at first. But then details emerge, pointing to the author’s illicit past. Turns out many people had motive to kill Columbia. And with a hungry reporter and frustrated cop on the trail, her secrets won’t stay buried long. But how many lives will they shatter as the truth comes out?

She couldn’t have written a better mystery herself. But when world renown author Columbia Jones is murdered on her own book tour, who’s left to solve her murder? With no one trusting anyone else, it’s a race to the finish line for the daughter, the reporter, and the detective.

Every character in this book intrigued me in some way. Columbia Jones, of course, because she’s the hugely successful author who has a secret past that no one, not even her daughter, knows about. Watching that backstory unravel was worth the price of admission.

Riley and Darian are two sides of the same coin. Both are strong and independent women, successful in their jobs, but also struggling to find their true selves. In the beginning, I liked Riley a lot more than I did Darian. But as the story unfolds, you get to know Darian better and she becomes a more sympathetic character.

Probably my favorite part, however, was how you get a glimpse into the past through a short story that’s presented chapter by chapter throughout the narrative. It’s an unusual way of imparting information and I enjoyed it quite a bit. I’d love to see more of this kind of thing in novels overall.

What a twisty rollercoaster of a ride this story was. I’m never very good at figuring out who the culprit is, but I definitely had no clue this time around. Just as you think one suspect is eliminated, they’re drawn back under the spotlight. This is a good thing in my opinion. I like to be led astray in a novel because it makes the reveal even more rewarding in the end. And the author seems to be very adept at doing exactly that. I look forward to reading more of the author’s work in the future. The two I have read so far have both blown me away.

A dead police officer…
A department desperate for answers…
Maddie Castle must take on the role that nearly took her life…
She must once again become The Handler.

A NEW crime thriller series from Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author L.T. Ryan with C.R. Gray!

Wounded in the line of duty, former K9 Handler Maddie Castle finds herself back to square one. The bullet that shredded her leg took the life of her four-legged partner. The pain of recovery goes well beyond the daily physical torment she endures.

Time is the supposed healer of all wounds. In Castle’s case, this hasn’t proven true. In a hail of gunfire, she lost not only her dog, but the one thing she loved above all else…the job.

Castle is back home in the trailer park she vowed never to return to. Taking a job as a private investigator has proven an unrewarding comparative to her former career. Barely making ends meet and hampered by the ever-present pain in her leg, Castle struggles to keep her footing in her new life.

A K9 handler from Castle’s old unit is gunned down. Castle is called in to assess whether the dog can be rehabilitated. The alternative is a consequence Castle can’t live with. Working to save the K9 might just well save Castle from herself.

As the hunt for the killer continues, Castle receives a call from a desperate mother searching for her missing son. The hunt for the boy leads Castle into the criminal underbelly of Pittsburgh. Powerful players who will stop at nothing stand in her way. Behind them lies the truth. Getting to it may cost her everything, including her life, as she seeks to expose a dark secret that could bring a city to its knees.

Follow Maddie Castle as she walks the blurred line of right and wrong in a desperate search for justice.

Wounded in the line of duty, former police K9 handler Maddie Castle lost more than her career when a bullet shredded through her leg, she lost her beloved four legged partner, her marriage and everything she valued in her life – including her health. Trying to piece everything back together by working as a PI she’s barely making ends meet and struggles daily to push past the pain – physical and emotional. When a K9 handler from her previous unit is gunned down, Castle lets herself get talked into retraining Tempest, to try and rehabilitate the devastated K9. Simultaneously she’s looking for a missing teenage boy, only to discover there’s a lot more to both cases than she had ever considered.

I’m an absolute sucker for military or police procedurals with four legged co-stars and I was thrilled to find this book was an exceptional addition to my regular roster. This is a new to me author, and the first in a new to me series so I was fairly cautious about giving it a go. I was about half way through when I put the book down and eagerly ordered the next in the series. I also did a quick search online to reassure myself this is still an ongoing series. I was really impressed with both the writing – which was a style I enjoyed – and with the plot and pacing.

As the first book in this series, there is a bit of background and character introduction which I enjoyed and helped me get a good feel and comfort with the world and main characters. By about a quarter of the way in the main plot threads were starting to interweave together in both a realistic and logical manner and even though there were some twists I felt it all worked together really cohesively and wasn’t over the top nor was it all a bunch of coincidences that felt pat or too contrived.

While it took a while for the action to really get rolling – I do feel this should appeal to readers who like a more police procedural style of novel as well as those who like a bit more action. There was plenty going on in this book and I enjoyed watching it all come together. I felt a particular strength in this book was none of the characters were clearly all good or all bad. Maddie is our heroine so clearly good, but she’s got both emotional scars and baggage to work through as well as some drug dependency. In a similar manner Simeon Gunn is clearly a “bad guy”, being the main drug source in their small area, and yet he is adamant none of his network sell to or recruit kids, and show proper respect to others in the community. So I really enjoyed how the characters were very clearly multi-layered and not two dimensional “good” or “bad”.

Readers who enjoy their mysteries with complicated characters, a good pace and plots that interweave together should find this book well worth a try, and particularly readers who enjoy animal side-kicks should be very satisfied with this book. I thoroughly enjoyed it and am looking forward to the next in the series. Recommended.

Stranded in the Arctic, the international crew of an illegal whaler find themselves in a race for survival. Can they survive the cold, the sea, and, most of all, each other?

Pushed to desperation in a bleak world ravaged by climate change, Lora M’Bandi flees her homeland to join a group of unlikely outcasts aboard the whaling ship Livyatan. When an explosion rips through the vessel, the crew become shipwrecked deep inside the Arctic Circle—sabotaged by one of their own. Now, they must trek across the treacherous sea ice to reach dry land before the ice retreats—all the while with a traitor in their midst and fearsome predators stalking their every move.

Who will make it out of this harrowing tale of horror and survival?

The threat of death lurks everywhere in the Arctic.

I enjoyed how much effort the author put into describing the characters’ backstories and explaining how they ended up illegally hunting whales on the Livyatan. This isn’t an occupation I’d generally sympathize with at all, but their reasons for breaking the law made sense once I got to know the characters better and understood how the powers that be let them down at critical moments in their lives. It was refreshing to understand their perspectives and why someone would agree to hunt such rare species.

It would have been helpful if more time was spent developing the mystery portion of the plot. The explosion that destroyed the Livyatan was such a crucial moment in the storyline that I was surprised by how little attention was given to figuring out why it happened. Yes, the characters needed to flee from the sinking ship and find a safe place to stay, but once they were out of the life raft they had plenty of time to think about what just happened and who might have been responsible for it. Having more clues to work with would have been beneficial for me as a reader, and I would have happily chosen a higher rating if they had been provided.

The world building was strong and intriguing. I especially liked how certain plot twists were shared with the audience as clips from news shows or when characters shared the latest headlines with one another. It made those revelations feel even more realistic, especially when certain characters had strong opinions in favor of or against what was happening in the world and I had a chance to compare their reactions with those who lived much closer to those wars, pandemics, droughts, and other critical events. Not everything affected everyone’s daily lives equally even if they were genuinely concerned about what was happening thousands of miles away from home, so it was also nice to have multiple perspectives on some of these moments.

Broken Voyage was a wild ride.

The egg man cometh…

When a delivery driver stumbles across the dead body of a reclusive author in a remote area within a stone’s throw of the Llyn Brianne dam, his first thoughts are that the elderly man has had a heart attack.

But the knife sticking out of the corpse’s chest tells a different story.

Dial in some missing walkers, a secretive cult, and the unwelcome presence of paranormal-hunting podcasters and DCI Warlow has his work cut out getting to the rotten heart of the case.

DCI Evan Warlow and his team are called in when a delivery man stumbles across the dead body of an elderly man stabbed to dead out front of his home in the isolated far northern reaches of Wales. Even though the area is extremely hard to reach and very isolated, the few neighbors on offer are somewhat questionable and as Evan and his team dig deeper into the victim’s previous life more and more questions appear. Can they work out what elements are really at play here?

I am really enjoying this Welsh police procedural series. I feel these are just a little bit darker and grittier than the usual British police procedural books I read. I really enjoy the Welsh elements to this story – the different landscape, the few Welsh words and colloquiums thrown in and the different atmosphere to the writing itself. While I find there are a number of British and Scottish series out there this remains the only Welsh series, I’m aware of and I really enjoy it.

I found the pace of this book just slightly slower than some other mysteries out there. I didn’t mind that but know it might not appeal to all readers. There were also clearly a few different sub plots rolling around and I couldn’t help but feel the two kidnapped girls plot could have potentially moved at a slightly faster pace since it wasn’t clear even by the half-way mark into the book exactly what was going on with them.

I absolutely love the main characters in the team. They all work together really cohesively and it’s clear how much they value and support one another. I also enjoy that they are all quite individual characters and watching them mesh together and interact is a real pleasure. I am really enjoying this series as a whole and can’t wait to read the next coming along.

A solid and well written Welsh police procedural, this book is worth giving a try.

Under the neon glitz of the big city lies a heart of greed, despair and murder. If Pressley Pierce can’t find a way to expose Span Corp’s CEO for his heinous crimes, it won’t be just her life on the line.

Hacking into a mega-corporation’s computer system for a noble cause is all in a day’s work for Pressley. But when her digging uncovers Ransom McCleary’s deepest secrets, Pressley finds herself on the run.

With her little sister kidnapped by Span Corp’s cyborg enforcers, Pressley is forced to turn to the one place she thought she’d never go for help—her childhood home…

Money shouldn’t influence who lives and who dies.

I liked the messages that were embedded into this story about the danger of associating a person’s worth with how much money and power they have. Span Corp was so powerful that it was difficult for most characters to imagine a world where justice could ever be served to their dangerous CEO. I’ll leave it up to other readers to discover just what Ransom’s terrible crime was, but this was an interesting exploration of what can happen when a wealthy and powerful person believes they are above the law and will never be caught.

There were a few conflicts that I wish had been given more time to develop and resolve, especially as it pertained to Pressley’s health and the strict rules her company had about certain medical conditions were meant to be handled. This was described as a major issue early on in the plot, so I was surprised by how quickly it was swept aside for other matters. There was more that could have been done there, and the plot would have been stronger if the narrator had dug more deeply into her health in my opinion.

This was an action-packed read that never left me any good stopping points when I needed to go do other things for a while. What a great problem to have with a book! I found myself thinking about the storyline when I was away from it and wondering what might happen next to the characters. The author certainly knew how to keep my interest levels high with all of the running, fighting, and hiding going on.

Neon Ziggurat was suspenseful.

A hit and run. A suspicious death. A vendetta.

Sam Earnshaw’s recovery from a year-long coma should be an occasion for celebration. Instead, he reveals that the hit and run incident that left him close to death was no accident. Someone deliberately pushed him into the path of a speeding vehicle.

As DCI Tom Raven leads the investigation into the attempted murder, he soon uncovers a web of dark secrets and lies. The attempt on Sam’s life is not the first time a killer has struck.

And it won’t be the last.

As the bodies mount up, Raven is forced into a race against time, whilst facing serious questions about his own life and future.

After a full year of sitting by the bedside of her comatose boyfriend, Becca is thrilled when – against all the odds – Sam finally wakes up. She is horrified, however, when Sam tells her the hit and run which had led to his coma all this time was an accident. Sam quickly insists this was not an accident at all, but that he’d been solidly pushed in front of that oncoming van. Becca rushes to tell her boss, DCI Raven and the team quickly goes about reinvestigating the case from a year earlier. Can they uncover what really went on after all this time?

I have been thoroughly enjoying this series and was pleased that this third installment was just as well plotted and well written as the two previous books. While the authors have a somewhat bad habit of strongly teasing the following book in the final few pages of the present book – not quite a cliffhanger ending but more than just a foreshadowing or tease – I can find little else that is wrong with this series. I enjoy the small and well-rounded cast of characters. The four main members of the team are well drawn and unique enough I can easily enjoy their strengths and weaknesses. I was also very impressed that this book – as have the others – stood well alone. There is very little baggage left over from previous books and so I strongly feel readers can pick this book by itself and still thoroughly enjoy the mystery within.

I was pleased a blast from Raven’s past came back into this story. There is very little carry over from his previous life in London and I saw this small opening into Raven’s past both interesting and well plotted into the story. The ongoing renovation to Raven’s house – a small bit of normalcy and amusement to my mind – helps keep the story rooted in reality and the different layers to the main mystery plot were all well handled.

Readers who enjoy a slightly slower paced British police procedural style of story should find this an enjoyable read and worth their time. I found the plot was woven quite well together and entirely believable.

Some paths lead only to the grave . . .

Strangefields Farm is notorious for its sinister history ever since artist Jackson Temples lured young women there to model for disturbing works of art. Some of those girls never left the house alive.

Now, decades later, Strangefields is to be transformed into a holiday village, but the developer’s hopes of its dark history being forgotten are dashed when a skull is found on the site. And when a local florist is found murdered in an echo of Temples’ crimes, DI Wesley Peterson fears that a copy-cat killer is at large. Especially when another brutal murder in a nearby village appears to be linked.

As Wesley’s friend, archaeologist Dr Neil Watson, uncovers the secrets of Strangefields’ grisly past, it seems that an ancient tale of the dead returning to torment the living might not be as fantastical as it seems. And Wesley must work fast to discover who’s behind the recent murders . . . before someone close to him is put in danger.

Decades after Strangefield’s Farm became infamous as the place where Jackson Temples lured many women to be his disturbing works of art – and a number of the young women were never seen or heard from again – it’s dark history is once more coming into focus. A skull is found in the cellar floor as building works begin, only for two more skeletons to quickly be unearthed. DI Wesley Peterson is curious but not overly concerned until a local florist is found murdered in an eerily similar style to that of Temples’ victims. Is a copy cat killer among them, or is something far more sinister at play here?

This is a long running series I have been enjoying and while I don’t feel this is the strongest book in the series it is still a very well written and I found it to be a highly enjoyable British Police Procedural. A few of the main themes have been thoroughly explored in previous books so at times I felt a little like this book was a rehash of previous novels.

I think possibly if it had just been one theme I might have overlooked it, but Della, Wesley’s mother in law, was being a bit of a pain, and then Rachel and Wesley spent a night in a motel for work and came close – again – to crossing the professional line, and then add in a woman from Wesley’s long distant past caught up with him for lunch and his wife, Pam, misread the signals she saw all happening within the space of the one book really made me feel as if the author was somewhat padding out the story. I would have honestly much preferred to have had another link in the historical/archaeology excavations and Neil’s plotline rather than all three rehashed Wesley’s personal life storylines, had the word count been a little low and the author needed to add in a few extra chapters.

That said, I did honestly find the main murder mystery and the current day police investigation was quite well written and I thoroughly enjoyed the twists revolving around Grace – the very long distant friend/girlfriend of Wesley’s – and her re-meeting the dead ex-lover. I thought that aspect to the plot, along with the incarcerated Jackson Temples was very well paced, well written and deeply interesting. I also enjoyed how, as usual, the book itself can be fairly easily picked up with little or no previous knowledge of this cast of characters and this world and still highly enjoyed.

While not the strongest book in the series this is still an enjoyable British police procedural style of murder mystery, and I enjoyed it.

Horror is an intense emotional response characterized by an overwhelming and painful feeling. It arises when one encounters something that is frightfully shocking, terrifying, or revolting. This profound emotion can lead to a visceral reaction, often causing a person to shudder with fear. It grips the mind and body, paralyzing them with a deep sense of dread and repulsion.

Horror comes in all shapes and sizes.

Two old, broke prospectors named Regan and Barlow decided to pan for gold in a new spot at the recommendation of a friend in “Teamwork.” There were some fun plot twists in this tale involving their search for treasure that made me wonder what might happen next but that I don’t want to spoil for others by going into detail about. I also appreciated the way the author played around with the audience’s expectations and made me wonder if he really was going to go in the direction I thought he might.

Some of the tales in this collection had abrupt endings that I wish had been given more time to develop. “Cellar Door” was one example of it. Ron’s troubled relationship with Cheryl was hinted at briefly before the story switched to describing why he decided to sign up as a medical test subject to make some extra money. It was never quite clear to me why he was so eager to do this or what was going on with him and Cheryl. This was a pattern that repeated itself in other instalments and was an impediment to a higher rating in my opinion.

Artie woke up from a mysterious surgery in “The Prototypical Soldier” and needed to piece together his past. As he recovered and began regaining both physical and mental strength, more clues about his mysterious past and the reasons why he had surgery began to emerge. I was pleasantly surprised by several of the plot twists and thought he was a well-written protagonist. This would have made a great full-length novel, although I was content with how things ended in the final scene.

The Recesses of Darkness Anthology put a shiver down my spine.

Killer Crabs Take Manhattan!

A welcome return to those tomes of pure enjoyment that we read with guilt in our early teens, in the tradition of James Herbert’s THE RATS and Guy N. Smith’s NIGHT OF THE CRABS.

It begins with a dead whale on a Boston shoreline–not in itself an unusual occurrence. But the things that claw their way out of the blubber are very unusual indeed.

Giant crabs descend on a small coastal town and, having feasted, make their way to Manhattan, hunted and harried by a SWAT team tasked with ridding the city of the menace…before the menace gets big enough to rid itself of the city.

When flesh eating crabs chew their way out of a dead, beached whale, it’s enough to draw some very serious attention. A number of unusual events revolving around a new found species of crabs soon has the Armed forces sitting up and taking notice, especially when some of their own are taken. It soon becomes clear the crabs are growing – and converging on Manhattan. A small team race to answer why – and how large will these things grow to?

I have been a huge fan of William Meikle’s for a number of years now and this story did not disappoint. A republishing of a previous novel of his I found this was everything about his writing that I love. Giant, monstrous beasties eating everyone in sight. A small and dedicated team hunting them down. Plenty of action, monsters and a rollicking good pace.

Readers who enjoy B grade horror movies and books along the same lines – ones that are here for a good time with plenty of fun – should find this a thoroughly enjoyable tale. I love this author’s S-Squad series and while this isn’t one of that series he admits it was where some of his earlier ideas for that did germinate. Sit back with a large cold drink, switch off your brain and be prepared for a fun, fast paced and excellently written tall tale. With just enough reality to make you think this is a wonderful monster story and one I will happily reread again soon.

With some memorable and enjoyable characters, giant monster crabs that are determined to take over everything and some exceptional fire power, this is a fun and rambunctious story and a brilliant addition to my Meikle library. Recommended.

You can run…but you can never hide from the truth

A man is found murdered in his home, bludgeoned to death. In his hand is a piece from a jigsaw puzzle. Despite being widely liked, someone harboured a deadly grudge.

DCI James Craig, who recently relocated from London to Fife to work with Police Scotland, leads a dedicated team tasked with unraveling the mystery behind the murder and the significance of the puzzling clue left behind. Despite the victim’s seemingly spotless reputation, lingering shadows from his past hint at a possible motive.

As Craig delves into the victim’s history, he uncovers the existence of a sinister alter ego that may have precipitated his demise, and the unsettling realisation that the killer may have more targets in mind.
With time ticking away, Craig races against the clock to identify potential victims before the tranquillity of the area is shattered by further bloodshed.

After the traumatic events that changed DCI James Craig’s world a few months ago, Craig and his wife are finally beginning to settle into a new routine. Back in Fife, Scotland they are trying hard to find a sense of normal again. When Craig is called out onto his first proper investigation, he’s pleased to finally turn his mind onto easier matters – like murder.

I enjoyed this second book in a new series by this author. While the cast of characters isn’t enormous, there are quite a few in the team and periphery around the case. I didn’t struggle to keep everyone in order – but readers who aren’t used to the frequently large cast this author tends to write might find it an effort to keep all the characters clear in their head. I also was quite pleased there was a bit of explanation and a very brief summary of events that led Craig and his wife to where they are right now. The ending to the previous book was literally life shattering for them both and they are both still clearly processing and coming to terms with this outcome and so it would have been quite disjointed I feel without some explanation, so I thought this was handled very well.

That said, I do feel this book can be picked up by itself. I’m wondering if perhaps later books in this series might have a bit too much history and backstory to really leave the option open to read these out of order or just randomly select one and start there, but for this second book I definitely feel readers should be able to comfortably catch up without having to go back to the first.

I also thought it was quite refreshing how the “who” aspect to the villain in this book was shown to the reader fairly early on. This was very much more of a plot and story to solve why the murders occurred and how these events came to be – rather than a “whodunit” style of mystery. While absolutely not uncommon – I really did enjoy this and being able to glimpse snatches from the murder’s perspective and slowly try to piece the puzzle together was really interesting and kept me heavily invested in the story. While I could understand if early unveiling isn’t every reader’s cup of tea, I absolutely felt there was plenty of mystery around why these murders were occurring and how it all connected up together, so I felt it was a lovely and rather refreshing take on a police procedural style of mystery novel.

With the slightly grittier Scottish backdrop and a complex plot I enjoyed this book and am eagerly awaiting the third to be published.
