The fact that Gary Bell is himself a QC contributes to this being an excellent description of the British justice system with all its intricacies laid bare. One can't help but compare this to the many courtroom and legal dramas, on both our shelves and screens and I for one find all of it truly... Continue Reading →

BLOG TOUR REVIEW – Murder on the Rocks by J.S.Strange
For some reason I've always tended to avoid anything under the genre of 'cosy'. I don't know what it is, but the idea of a 'cosy' book, just doesn't sit well with me.

BLOG TOUR REVIEW – Your Deepest Fear by David Jackson
Although this is the fourth in a series of books featuring DI Nathan Cody, having not read the first three books, I feel that this worked well as a standalone.
