“A recommendation by David Mitchell personally to me (at a great event to discuss Slade House)
This is a modern classic, written in the 1950’s when many West Indian men and women known as the Windrush Generation came to London to start a new life. Not a plot driven novel, and a little depressing, but important view of social history.
I can’t say I enjoyed it much. 4/10
Score 4/10

“Not as well know as some of the big thriller writers from the US but in many ways better. His Prey series is top notch.
This is 24th in the Lucas Davenport series. I’ve read a few and fine to go out of series order.
There’s a serial killer on the loose… pacey 6/10

“Lincoln Rhyme novel.
The good thing about Deaver is the pages fly by. If you haven’t read one for a while it’s easy to forget there will be a twist in the tail.
An entertaining if a bit gruesome 6/10
