Stav Sherez recommends
The Hidden Room (2017)
Stella Duffy
"Wonderfully gothic and sinuous, Duffy's The Hidden Room is a top-notch psychological thriller filled with crazed cults, strange occurrences and creepiness galore. A superbly original, highly tense and often moving crime novel."
City Without Stars (2018)
Tim Baker
"One of those books that just won't let you go - not when you're reading it and not for a long time afterwards. An exhilarating and kaleidoscopic novel that will also break your heart. Assured, trenchant and gripping, Baker has assumed his place among those crime writers you must read."
Gringa (2018)
(Mario Leme, book 2)
Joe Thomas
"Fresh, gripping and incredibly assured. Joe Thomas will be a name to watch in crime fiction."
Liberation Square (2019)
Gareth Rubin
"Liberation Square is a superb and intelligent piece of alternate history. By turns gripping, terrifying and trenchant, it is a remarkably assured debut making Rubin's name one to watch out for in the crowded crime landscape."
