“Getting her back to England will be a challenge,” the king said. “Thurstan Wildblood’s her escort, you say? Well … I suppose he's a demon with a sword.”
“It’s a strange individual to put so much trust in,” the bishop admitted. “But I had no real choice.”

A lady cop hunts a Detroit killer who makes artworks out of his victims. Ultra high-end writing from @laurenbeukes.com. The ‘change of gear’ from thriller to supernatural(ish) horror jolted a few readers, so be prepared. Amazing, scary and intoxicating. paulfinch-writer.blogspot.com/2016/04/nigh...
It's heartbreaking. Lost both Buck and Buddy in two years. Horrific. House still seems empty.
Curious shocker from the pen of a famous rake. A vampire story with unexpected layers, as louche satirist Simon Raven mocks the British establishment with nasty deaths and waspish humour. Another corker from @valancourtbooks.bsky.social. Full review: paulfinch-writer.blogspot.com/2022/06/yet-...

Hi-octane desert actioner in which the bullets fly thick. A life and death struggle amid the sun-bleached bones of a failed society. Eye-popping even as occult thrillers go. Muscular writing, a hardscrabble storyline and graphic violence. My review: paulfinch-writer.blogspot.com/2021/06/carq...
Thanks, Helen.
A Gothic atmosphere and the lush landscapes of south Scotland combine to create the perfect backdrop for this fearsome ghost story. Don’t be fooled by @helengrantsays.bsky.social’s delicate style; deep darkness lurks under this subtle surface. My review: paulfinch-writer.blogspot.com/2021/10/mist...
One of my favourite opening scenes to a horror film, even though it's not much of a horror film overall. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbAQ...
‘That road would have taken them past Nazareth. Bertrand would have sought it for that reason alone, as would others. So many were here purely for spiritual upliftment. Not so Wildblood of course. He was here because it was war, and war was what he did...’

One of the eeriest urban myths gets the film treatment. Despite all the well publicised problems in Hollywood, the horror movie industry keeps churning them out. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTHl...
Like horror at the ends of the Earth? Like ancient evils blazing back to life after aeons of slumber? Then this visceral Antarctic chiller is for you. Extraordinary writing as Tim Curran extends Lovecraft’s polar nightmare with gleeful relish. My review: paulfinch-writer.blogspot.com/2021/01/gloo...
‘You broke some sacred rules,’ Gemma said. ‘And in so doing endangered not just yourself but other police officers.’
‘The only ones who died, ma'am, died because the Nice Guys murdered them.’
‘You were like a man possessed, Heck. You were at war.’

Southern Noir in the sun-scorched Texas badlands. Another thumpingly enjoyable thriller from a literary lodestone. Living, breathing prose, flying bullets, heat, dust and richly-written characters. Prepare to be captivated. My full review: paulfinch-writer.blogspot.com/2019/03/grot....
Big, solid chunk of a murder mystery, lushy written and deeply intriguing. There’s much to do with druids, ritual sacrifice and unsolved child murders, but it’s socially conscious too, with hard emphasis on recent Irish history. Full review: paulfinch-writer.blogspot.com/2020/06/cops...
How-to guide for spending a Saturday afternoon reading outdoors in the UK. Pair of sunglasses to deal with the sun's glare, and a thermos of hot coffee to deal with the perishing cold.

Welcome to SCUTTLER’S COVE.
Saturday Morning Kitchen would be so much better without all the sniggering and backslapping, and the endless in-jokes that no one in the audience actually gets.
‘They regarded the hotel’s well-lit interior. Suddenly, there was an eeriness about its pristine state. Not just after the furious weather outside but seeing how empty it was. The storm raged on, raindrops machine-gunning the panes...’

Distressing, thought-provoking, frightening. Master craftsman William Trevor’s succinct study of child psychopathology. Kitchen sink horror in a depressing British town. Scarily believable. My full review: paulfinch-writer.blogspot.com/2022/03/aban...
Struggling to remember this event - think it was @waterstones.bsky.social, Wigan, about 4 years ago - but if I say so myself, I was rocking that quiff.

‘Nick simply smiled, refusing to dwell on the emptiness and silence that now filled the rest of this vast, multi-roomed mansion, or the eerie masks and costumes, or the hideous fire-lit faces on those paintings on the staircase ...’

Think you know about Fairyland? Think again. No dancing by starlight, no butterfly wings. These elder beings are moody and dangerous. Thriller meets fantasy in this beguiling mystery, which draws on some of our oldest, most peculiar myths. Full review: paulfinch-writer.blogspot.com/2022/09/terr...
Fact meets fiction in Kerr’s classy Berlin Noir. Intense character-work as an honest cop is torn by his duty to the 3rd Reich. Monsters of history abound: gangsters, spivs, sex murderers, and Nazis. A cauldron of darkness in a time of chaos. My review: paulfinch-writer.blogspot.com/2022/03/tens...
The Audible version of NO QUARTER is out in two days’ time (Apr 9). Get it here: www.audible.co.uk/pd/No-Quarte...
