I stumbled across this book here on PH a few months ago and decided it would be polite to check it out since the author D L Marshall is a PHer and all.

Well, I was blown away - easily my favourite book this year.
I don’t want to spoil anything because the fun is the journey, but: Fantastic writing style setting up an ominous atmosphere, a main character who’s very believable, tons of twists, and when you think you’ve spotted a clichéd one the author twists it again. And then to top it off a great car chase scene evidently written by a petrolhead.

I immediately preordered the sequel Black Run, there’s a sample at the end of Anthrax Island that whets the whistle with some Audi RS4 Avant mischief that's very enjoyable. It’s just been released this week and I am gagging to get onto it.

Genuinely highly recommended, would love to hear anyone else enjoy it?
