Another great piece of feedback on MASKIROVKA — this time from a former French soldier!
But fear not, plenty of Royal Navy action in there too!

I've just devoured this book by
@barristersecret.bsky.social in two days. Tense, edge of your seat stuff, using inside knowledge and turning it into one of the best legal thrillers I've ever read. Available now. Thanks, @panmacmillan.bsky.social for the advance reading copy at #TheakstonsCrime!

There's plenty more still to come this year and lots to look forward to in 2026 as we celebrate a special anniversary...

A recent pre #TheakstonsCrime read was 'Wycliffe in Paul's Court'. I loved the 90's TV series and I occasionally dip into the book series. At just over 200 pages, this was actually nice, quick and quirky read.
