|title=Box Nine
|rating=2
|genre=Crime
|summary=The wind brushed against the review like a thousand kisses and Sam knew that something out of the ordinary was happening. It wasn't since the long hot summer 1997 that he had the misfortune to read a book that had as much extraneous detail as this. He felt to himself that there was little point in actually getting to the meat of a review, when instead he could witter on about something that had little to do with anything – perhaps this would get a little annoying over 352 pages? Welcome to the world of Jack O'Connell's ''Box Nine''.

|summary= I enjoyed this police crime novel by a talented new writer, Kate London. It is a well written and intelligently thought out book. The characters are clearly drawn and you are able to see the drama unfold from different perspectives. The action constantly shifts from the present, back to the events that lead to the crime taking place and then forward to reveal a little more of the plot with each shift. This helps you engage immediately with the story and with the characters.

|title=So Nude, So Dead
|rating=4.5
|genre=Crime
|summary=What's in a name? A lot if you decide to call your book ''So Nude, So Dead''. This is a title to conjure with, what on Earth is it about? As this is a ''Hard Case'' title it is likely to be hardboiled and not adverse to a little violence and titillation. However, consider that the book was once call ''The Evil Sleep!'' and has since been renamed; is this more a case of the title selling the book rather than accurately portraying its content?
