Delighted to be moderating a panel with author Paul Finch at CrimeFest on 18 May and I really enjoyed reading his novel Strangers. Here is a quick review:

I loved the central character, PC Lucy Clayburn, and was totally hooked as she struggles to prove she is worthy of becoming a detective by solving a series of brutal murders. Finch is a master story-teller who ensures that Clayburn is plunged into increasing jeopardy, until the dramatic and nail-biting climax. It shows that Finch is a former cop. His knowledge of policing really brings the story to life. I can’t wait for the next book.
