And our next novel set in Barcelona will be out in September! Meanwhile, here's the first in the Barcelona trilogy by @teresasolanawriter.bsky.social with that very cathedral on the cover

Broken is a sharp new take on Nordic Noir that hit the spot last year. M.W. Craven called Broken 'a crime novel to relish. Outstanding.’ Not going to argue with that. amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DVZFZ6Y7 Now we're deep in edits for the sequel, and Toxic isn't going to disappoint.

Barcelona really is a fascinating city of contrasts!

Stella Blómkvist- The Murder Pool tr. Quentin Bates 'Stella is undoubtedly a divisive character in terms of her morality & behaviour to achieve what she needs to, but I’m really rather fond of her.' @graskeggur.bsky.social @corylusbooks.bsky.social ravencrimereads.wordpress.com/2026/03/20/b...

A few initial thoughts about the International Booker Longlist for 2026 findingtimetowrite.wordpress.com/2026/02/25/i...

Four Days in Copenhagen and One Book alifeinbooks.co.uk/2026/02/four...

Presenting the longlist for the #InternationalBooker2026, supported by Bukhman Philanthropies. Find out more about the books, authors and translators: thebookerprizes.com/ibp2026

Been a supporter of this prize more or less since the outset so to be featured as a book of the month AND be asked to judge it during its 10th year is very, very special indeed. The longlist is awesome, news on the shortlist coming VERY soon......
