Guidelines
The main type of book that features on this blog is crime fiction, though I am not averse to a break now and again.
Due to the current reading commitment for the Dagger judging (see the ‘About’ page), I am less likely to be able to accept novels for consideration on this blog. Self-published books are highly unlikely to be considered, but are not completely ruled out. I can only accept hard copy editions at the present time and I am not about to start reading anything electronically at my PC, so please don’t try to persuade me.
I will only post about books for which I am positive overall.
I can be contacted on crimeficreader at gmail dot com.
Hi Rhian
“Think Victorian CSI….”
We have already talked on twitter. My second book comes out on Oct 25th – THE DEVIL’S RIBBON. I have a US deal with St Martin’s and Goldmann’s in Germany but no UK publisher so I am HYPE FREE! Both my books are available over here on Amazon, Waterstones.com and those books stores I’ve been able to nobble. Heffers being a big supporter.
My new book is 2nd in the series, the star of the show being the dogged pathologist – & London’s first forensic scientist – Professor Adolphus Hatton who works with his morgue assistant, Albert Roumande who one reader has called “far more than a Watson.” They solve crimes against interesting political backdrops – darwinism in “DEVOURED”; fenianism in THE DEVIL’S RIBBON.
I can send you more detail, a paperback galley now or if you prefer later in October, a signed first edition. Is this something you would consider reviewing? I can send you more info on the series and THE DEVIL’S RIBBON by email – like the arc.
Best wishes
Denise
