___________________ 'A terrific, original duo' The Times
'Multi-layered, superbly plotted, brimming with mystery, tension
and bone-chilling violence, and with two very different - but
equally fascinating - lead female characters, Block 46 is not for
the squeamish or faint-hearted ... this is a book that has the
power to shock and the artistry to impress long after the last page
has turned' Lancashire Post 'Utterly compelling' Woman's Own 'A
bold and audacious debut from a very talented writer. Heralds the
beginning of a thrilling new series' R J Ellory 'Viscerally brutal
yet delicately beautiful, like blood spatter on fresh snow. An
unbelievable debut' Matt Wesolowski 'A truly unique and chilling
blend of Nordic Noir's dark atmosphere ... gritty, bone-chilling,
and harrowing - it's not for the faint of heart, and not to be
missed' Crime by the Book 'A real page-turner, I loved it' Martina
Cole 'A great serial-killer thriller with a nice twist ... first
rate' James Oswald 'Cleverly plotted, simply excellent' Ragnar
Jonasson 'A must-read' Daily Express 'There's a touch of Hannibal

You'll want to double check the door locks and keep a few extra
lights on, as you read ... the suspense is brutal' Kingdom Books
