Chris Lloyd recommends

Dark Island (2024)
(Orkney Mysteries, book 1)
Daniel Aubrey
"Sublime. With a story that is every bit as tempestuous and powerful as an island storm, Aubrey's writing is both supremely pacy and deeply thoughtful. Freya Sinclair is an absolute winner of a protagonist, who has you rooting for her from page one. Please may there be many more in this series."
thumb
Death on the Lusitania (2024)
(Patrick Gallagher, book 1)
R L Graham
"Masterfully weaves historical detail with an enthralling locked-room mystery. Impeccably researched, the story is not just a great crime tale, with a compelling central character in Patrick Gallagher, but a haunting imagining of the last hours of the Lusitania."
thumb
A Spy Alone (2023)
(Oxford Spy Ring, book 1)
Charles Beaumont
"Beaumont takes the intrigue, atmosphere and subterfuge of the Cambridge Spies and brings it bang up to date with a what-if tale of an Oxford spy ring at the service of modern-day populist politicians and malevolent regimes. A chilling story that feels all too plausible today, written with extraordinary insight."
