Critics Review
The Queen of Highland Noir gets spookier and darker with every book! A compelling read!
The Queen of Highland Noir gets spookier and darker with every book! A compelling read! * Lilja Sigurdardottir *
In the Blood is a potent mix of true-to-life characters, gritty, authentic writing and a plot that kept me guessing until the very end - Margaret Kirk is one of the strongest voices in the current crop of excellent Scottish crime writers * Alison Belsham *
Top notch detective fiction with a little twist of something spooky. Five stars! * James Oswald *
Deliciously dark and pulse-pounding * Helen S Fields *
Lukas Mahler’s third outing is an intriguing tale set on Orkney where the past and present collide, testing acting DCI Mahler to his limits both professionally and personally. Orkney is as much a star as Mahler, who becomes more compelling with every outing. Highly recommended. * Lin Anderson *
