We were delighted to read that Ragnar Jónasson's The Mist was chosen as one of the Times' Best Books of 2020. 

The third in the Hidden Iceland series, starring DI Hulda Hermansdottir, The Mist was published by Michael Joseph last week and has already garnered some fantastic reviews:

"Nothing less than a landmark in modern crime fiction." The Times

"Jónasson weaves his suspenseful tales together with remorseless logic up to a climax more nightmarish than the buildup." Kirkus Reviews​

Also published last week, was the eBook of Jean Levy's second psychological thriller, Other Women (Dome Press). 

Sophie thought she and Jonah were happy, bringing up their small daughter, until one summer's day, she discovers that Jonah is far from the man she thought he was. Sam - an attractive English teacher - seems to offer her some comfort, and new friendships are a support.

But is Sam really who he says he is? Where have her new friends appeared from? Is anyone telling the truth? As Jonah's lies threaten Sophie and her daughter, can anyone be trusted?


The paperback of this twisty page-turner will be published in September.



If you love your audiobooks then watch out for a fantastic deal on Tuesday 5th May, where Phillipa Ashley's A Perfect Cornish Summer will be only £1.99 as part of the Audible Daily Deal. 

Simply type the title in to Audible's search bar & you'll find what you're looking for.

The second in Gerard O'Donovan's Tom Collins mysteries, The Doom List, has been given a fantastic review from Publishers Weekly:

"O'Donovan makes fine use of period details, and peoples the cast with fascinating real-life characters. This action-packed, tightly plotted mystery should win the author news fans."

The Doom List follows the first in the series, ​The Long Silence.
