One of the nicest peeps in crime fiction has a new book out. Go buy it.
My review is over at CRIMESQUAD
and here's a wee taster ...
The flavours that Sherez
adds to the novel are many and varied with his keen observations about his
characters’ interactions, a side of London you rarely see in crime fiction and an
African history that Carrigan is desperate to forget. All of this has a ring of
authenticity that draws you in and holds your attention captive throughout.
Interesting blend of cultures.
ReplyDeleteHi alex - I have a QnA with Stav where he explains his motivation for such a blend. Will be posting that shortly.
ReplyDeleteSounds really good. Also, that title is full of shivery foreboding...
ReplyDeleteI remember when you wrote about this author before, maybe you were at a conference with him? I've been waiting to see his book. I'll check it out.
ReplyDeleteYeah, exactly, LG - shivery foreboding.
ReplyDeleteLivia, I met Stav at Harrogate Crime Writing Festival last year. A thoroughly nice man and a fine writer.
I'm reading it at the moment Michael. It's a great book and I loved his first book too.
ReplyDeleteI just bought The Devil's Playground, Sarah. The man is quality, eh.
