review 1: Loved it! Although the plot with Jack and Flea didn't advance in any meaningful way, this was a good read. It isn't my favourite, and lacked some of the atmosphere that kept me awake while I was reading Poppet, but it was still great. I know that there are other books outside o...

review 1: This is #6 in the Jack Cafferty detective series. Set in a high security mental ward, something is terrifying the patients. Reports of the "Maude" sitting on patients' chests and tormenting them has staff on edge. Quick chapters, suspenseful plot kept my attention, but the plo...

review 1: Holy BeJesus! There is no doubt that Mo Hayder is deserving of the Edgar Award she won for this novel. Although part of the Jack Caffery series there is no need to have read the others to pick this up (although I bet you will backtrack after reading this). I stayed up until nearl...

review 1: Better than its predecessor. The suspenseful edge-of-the-seat plot kept me riveted BUT - and this a super big 'but', what happened to our semi-sensitive piano-playing copper? He is turning into a chain-smoking lush with a fixation on a girl he has really absolutely nothing in com...

review 1: Mo Hayder was recommended to me as "better than Val McDermind" and I have to say, she didn't quite live up to that. This was the first book of hers I'm still waiting to be impressed. It was an ok read (I'd give 2.5 stars if possible). The character of Flea Marley, the dive team s...
