They exist! And they are beeyootiful!

So I’m going to be at London Book Fair tomorrow, somewhere in amongst the above melee. I’m doing a Creative Scotland event on Tartan Noir with agent Jenny Brown, Denise Mina and Sara Hunt from Saraband. 4pm in The Club Room, National Hall, come find us if you’re about!

Here are my latest book reviews in The Big Issue magazine. I reviewed Blue Night (Orenda) by Simone Buchholz and The Hoarder (Canongate) by Jess Kidd. Two crackers, very different but both full of dry humour.

Hello peeps! Last chance to pick up FAULT LINES cheap on Kindle and Kobo before it goes back to some non-ridiculous price. Universal 5-star reviews so far. Just saying…

Here’s the final final cover for Fault Lines, with amazing quotes from Mark Billingham, Megan Abbott and Steve Cavanagh on it. Blown away. It’s off to the printers today, out 22nd May!

I was on BBC Radio Scotland’s Afternoon Show with Janice Forsyth today, one of the panel doing the Tuesday review, where we blethered about an Agatha Christie adaptation, a Jenny Saville exhibition and RuPaul’s Drag Race. Like you do. Listen from about an hour in.

If you’re on Kobo, a whole bunch of terrific Orenda books are going for 99p for Easter, including Fault Lines. Go check it out!
