More than any other form of 'marketing', more copies of Maureen Myant's books sell through word of mouth. The review comments to The Fallen might give as hint as to why... @maureenmyant.bsky.social

Our second book of the autumn, The Bad Women, was very well reviewed. Hard to classify exactly but so apt for the times we live in.

Great review, thanks, Pete. Sorry I didn't repost yesterday. This is spot on!
'Even when boundaries are being pushed, with the aim of creating a cracking thriller, the reader can have confidence that the events described will be possible, no matter how unlikely they may appear.' #review

Its day two of the @hobeckbooks.bsky.social blog tour and publishing day for #FatalShot book 6 in Brian Price's #MelCotton series. It's another breathtaking police thriller in a series that never shortchanges the reader
