Easter treats — everything’s criminal but the price

There have been some great books published recently in the crime genre, so I thought I’d do a quick round up of some of the ones that have caught my eye.

Abide With Me: Ian Ayris
This is an absolute cracker of a book and definitely a favourite of mine. It’s a coming of age story full of brutality and compassion, hurt and hope. Lovely stuff.

Snapshots: Paul D. Brazill
Twenty-one short, sharp snapshots of the dark side of life, as seen the booze and blood splattered chiaroscuro lens of the irrepressible Paul D. Brazill. Can’t be bad!

The Damage: Howard Linskey
Newcastle gangster David Blake is back in the much-anticipated sequel to debut novel The Drop, also highly recommended. And I’m delighted to say that Howard will be here on Saturday with a Q&A, so watch out for that.

The Late Greats: Nick Quantrill
Another sequel, in this case the follow-up to Broken Dreams. Both books feature Hull PI Joe Geraghty, a flawed and complex character driven as much by misplaced guilt as the need to see justice done.

One of Us: Iain Rowan
The debut novel from an award-winning writer, and one I’ve been looking forward to for ages. Illegal immigrant Anna gets the chance to gain proper identification papers, but at a price ... how much is she prepared to give up to be one of us?

Frank’s Wild Years: Nick Triplow
This is a cracker, a tale of betrayal and redemption steeped in whisky and blood, and another personal favourite.

So there you go — six of the best. (And if that wasn’t enough,  my own debut novel Convictions is free again for three days from tomorrow. Happy Easter!)
