Critics Review
A sparkling debut from a name to watch. Hurcom expertly weaves a tale of claustrophobic suspicion set in a Welsh village a few miles from Cardiff - but so inward-looking and insular you might as well be in another world. This is top notch historical crime fiction, with a dash of the supernatural. A gorgeous book and a riveting tale – David Young on A SHADOW ON THE LENS
An intriguing debut * The Times on A SHADOW ON THE LENS *
