Reviews

*PRAISE FOR MARNIE RICHES*

'Fast, furious, fantasticOne killer thriller! Mark Edwards

A strong, edgy debut that deserves to do well Clare Mackintosh

Raw, brutal and utterly compelling. Riches is an explosive new talent. David Mark

Marnie Riches arrives with a fully formed narrative skill that suggests decades of experience; shes created a wonderfully idiosyncratic heroine, prone to bad judgement, and placed her in an artfully constructed novel that even incorporates cogent discussions of sexuality and gender. Ms Riches is clearly a name to watch! BARRY FORSHAW, author of Euro Noir and The Rough Guide to Crime Fiction

This was one of the best sequels I have ever read. The follow up book was simply amazing. Amazon 5* review
