📕Follow the Butterfly by @marttakaukonen.bsky.social 📕 I love Nordic Noir, so how about some translated Finnish crime? Ida, checks herself into therapy. The therapist is well known & respected. From the moment they first meet, you are unsure who gains the most from their sessions. #BookSky💙📚

📕Sweet Revenge by Judith Tipping📕 The second in the DCI Strain series, but can easily be read as a standalone. This isn’t really a police procedural or a crime thriller; the moniker police fiction suits it well. Review t.ly/8PKbA #BookSky💙📚

📕Sick to Death by @chrisbridgeswriter.bsky.social 📕 📚Published by Avon Books UK 📚 This book started with an intriguing opening, but then seemed to take awhile to get going; I’m glad I persevered. An entertaining read. Review t.ly/EW3_4 #BookSky💙📚

PUBLISHED 1st June 📕Dirt Road Dead by TG Reid A gripping prologue pulls you in & the fast pace doesn’t let you go until you’ve finished reading. Read it & then wait impatiently for book 10. Review t.ly/kpo6W #BookSky💙📚 @tgreid.bsky.social

📕Mine to Keep by JM Simpson📕 I have read this author’s Castleby series, & absolutely loved it, so had high expectations of this standalone psychological thriller. They were met, & then some! Review t.ly/us0xT #BookSky💙📚 @jmsimpsonauthorbsk.bsky.social @cahilldavis.bsky.social

🎉Happy Publication Day🎉 📕Body of Lies by Jo Callaghan📕 📚Published by Simon & Schuster📚 The fourth & final book in the excellent Kat & Lock series. Knowing how book 3 ended, I started reading this one with trepidation, but this is a fitting end to a fantastic series. Review t.ly/NZ8Hf #BookSky📚💙

Th1rt3en by @stevecavanagh.bsky.social This is another in the Eddie Flynn thriller series,although it can be read as a standalone. The plot,the killer on the jury, makes for a thriller which is ingenious,brilliant & intricate. Get reading! Review t.ly/uRijm #BookSky💙📚 @headlinebooks.bsky.social

📕Crossing the Line by Jamie Sinclair 📕 There are advantages of not accepting many new books to read at the moment, like finding hidden gems in my tbr pile. I knew within the first few pages that I was going to enjoy reading this police procedural. Review t.ly/uFqfp #BookSky💙📚

📕The Boy I Love by William Hussey 📕 If you had told me to read this YA book I would have politely declined, but I’m going to say exactly that to you. A truly heart rending story running the full gamut of emotions from loss, friendship, hope & love. Read it. Review t.ly/lg0Y5 #BookSky💙📚

📕Requiem by Zelinda Morrison📕 This is the fifth & final instalment of the Those Fleeting Annihilations series of novellas. It cannot be read as a standalone as there is too much backstory to understand why we are where we are. Review t.ly/UQu7m #BookSky💙📚 @zelindamorrison.bsky.social

📕Fifty Fifty by Steve Cavanagh📕 Mr Cavanagh plays with your mind throughout, you think you know who committed the murder & then you are unsure when everything is flipped on its head. The tension holds to the very end of this brilliant book. Review t.ly/epBE4 #BookSky📚💙 @stevecavanagh.bsky.social

📕Storm Bodies by Steve Orme 📕 A solid police procedural with humour & gore sprinkled in equal measure. Add in a hint of romance & a creepy villain you can really get behind, & all the ingredients are included for an enjoyable & entertaining crime thriller. @steveorme.bsky.social #BookSky📚💙

📕Shadow Chasers by S J Richards 📕 I can’t believe this is book 11 in the Luke Sackville Crime Thriller series. It can be read as a standalone but I would strongly advise that you start at the beginning & gradually meet the team. A fabulous read. Review t.ly/01X3M #BookSky💙📚
