On What Cathy Read Next last week
Monday – I published my review of crime novel, Death on the Thames by Alan Johnson.
Tuesday – I shared my publication day Q&A with Maria McDonald, author of historical romance, The Keeper of Secrets. I went slightly off-topic for this week’s Top Ten Tuesday topic with a list some of my favourite book to film adaptations.
Wednesday – As always WWW Wednesday is a weekly opportunity to share what I’ve just read, what I’m currently reading and what I plan to read next… and to take a peek at what others are reading.
Thursday – I shared an extract from Kill All the Dogs by Rick Berry, the author’s debut novel described as ‘part psychological drama, part political satire‘.
Friday – I published my review of Diva by Daisy Goodwin.
Saturday – I shared my review of The Book of Secrets by Anna Mazzola.
New arrivals
The Montford Maniac by M.R.C. Kasasian (ARC, Canelo)
A crazed killer. A town in terror. A mystery ten years in the making…
Lady Violet Thorn’s awful Aunt Igitha arrives uninvited to stay, wreaking havoc in the household. When Violet plucks up courage to ask her to leave, Igitha’s chilling threats are soon realised with deadly effect.
In a devastating series of events, a woman is impaled, another is hanged outside Violet’s window, and a wild beast is delivered to her house.
Violet is soon struck by the similarities between these events, and the unsolved murders committed ten years earlier by the sadistic serial killer known as the Montford Maniac.
Could he have returned? Is Igitha behind the crimes? Or could there be someone even more terrifying on the prowl? The horrors have only just begun.
