Here are this week's new reviews and a reminder of January's competition:
Latest Reviews:
Declan Burke reviews Saturday's Child by Ray Banks writing "Ray Banks offers us a glimpse of what Samuel Beckett might have read like had he turned his hand to crime fiction";
Fiona Walker reckons The Sinner by Petra Hammesfahr is every bit as good as Stieg Larsson's The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, (so look out for that one on the International Dagger shortlist);
Maxine Clarke adds another Swedish author to her list of favourite writers after reading Unseen by Mari Jungstedt;
and she also enjoyed The Simian Curve by Mark Lalbeharry - a London based police procedural with a science angle
and Pat Austin gets the read she's long been waiting for with Manda Scott's The Crystal Skull which could be her 'read of the year'.
Current Competition (closing date 31 January):
Win a copy of Bad Traffic by Simon Lewis (UK & Europe only)
(geographical restrictions are in brackets)
These seem a good lot, Karen -- especially, as you say, The Sinner, clearly one I am going to have to add to my list!
