New Reviews:Previous reviews can be found in the review archive and forthcoming titles can be found here plus for those thinking about their favourite books of 2008, there's a list (generated from my database) of British/European crime novels (written by British/Europeans) published in the UK in 2008, here. (I haven't yet updated it to include non-Europeans writing about Europe).
I review Maureen Carter's latest Bev Morriss book - a series set in 'unfashionable' Birmingham - Bad Press;
Pat Austin reviews the first book in the Red Riding Quartet by David Peace - 1974 (three of the four books are being televised next year);
Fiona Walker reviews Portobello by Ruth Rendell
and Maxine Clarke reviews the newest in Michael Walters' Mongolian series, The Outcast.

New Reviews: Carter, Peace, Rendell, Walters
The following reviews have been added to the review archive over on the main Euro Crime website:
I was exhausted by reading 1974, some years ago - I know what Pat means. I did not realised that the books were conceived as a quartet, I thought he just kept on going once he'd had success with the first. I was not tempted to carry on with them because I found the extreme darkness unbelievable. Very noir.
