For questions 1-14 choose from reviews A – F. The reviews may be chosen more than once and one review is extra.
A) Sharp, streetwise and totally engaging contemporary thriller Good Bad Woman by E. Woodcraft (who is a barrister herself ) is a slice of London life and the first in a new series featuring irresistible Frankie Richmond. Frankie, a feisty working class London barrister heroine, is a diehard soul music fan. As the title suggests, despite her job on the right side of the law, she ends up on the wrong side - arrested for murder. No favorite of the police - who are happy to see her go down - in order to prove her innocence she must solve the case, one that involves an old friend and some uncomfortable truths a bit too close to home.
B) Dialogues, R. Hill’s latest book in a series of gripping detective novels, featuring Detective Superintendent Dalziel and his subordinate inspector Pascoe, was published last month. The weird semblance between stories submitted to a Yorkshire short story competition and mysterious situations of two seemingly random accidents attracts the attention of Mid-Yorkshire Police. Superintendent Andy Dalziel realizes they may have a dangerous criminal on their hands - one the media are soon calling the Wordman. There are enough clues around to weave a tapestry, but it’s not clear who’s playing with whom. Is it the Wordman versus the police, or the criminal versus his victims? And just how far will the games go?
C) Andrew Roth’s deservedly celebrated Roth Trilogy has drawn to a close with the paperback publication of the third book, The Office, set in a 1950s cathedral city. Janet Byfield has everything that Wendy Appleyard lacks: she’s beautiful, she has a handsome husband, and an adorable little daughter, Rosie. At first it seems to Wendy as though nothing can touch the Byfields’ perfect existence, but old sins gradually come back to haunt the present, and new sins are bred in their place. The shadows seep through the neighborhood and only Wendy, the outsider looking in, is able to glimpse the truth. But can she grasp its twisted logic in time to prevent a tragedy whose roots lie buried deep in the past?
D) Zouache may not be the obvious heroine for a crime novel, but November sees her debut in Fidelis Morgan’s wonderful Restoration thriller Unnatural Fire. From debtor to private eye, this Countess is an aristocrat, fleeing for her life through the streets of 17th-century London. Featuring a colourful cast of misfits and brilliantly researched period detail, Unnatural Fire has a base in the mysterious science of alchemy, and will appeal to adherents of both crime and historical fiction.
E) Black Dog is Stephen Booth’s hugely accomplished debut, now published in paperback. It follows the mysterious disappearance of teenager Laura Vernon in the Peak District. Ben Cooper, a young Detective Constable, has known the villagers all his life, but his instinctive feelings about the case are called into question by the arrival of Diane Fry, a ruthlessly ambitions detective from another division. As the investigation twists and turns, Ben and Diane discover that to understand the present, they must also understand the past - and, in a world where none of the suspects is entirely innocent, misery and suffering can be the only outcome.
F) And finally, The Sculptress by M. Walters, one of the most celebrated writers in British crime fiction, like many of her books, has made successful transition to our TV screens. Preoccupied with developing strong plots and characterization rather than with crime itself, she has created some disturbing and innovative psychological narratives. The Shape of Snakes is set in the winter of 1978. Once again Walters uses her narrative skills to lead the reader astray (there is a clever use of correspondence between characters), before resolving the mystery in her latest intricately plotted bestseller which is full of suspense. Once again she shows why she is such a star of British crime fiction.
