When Sebastian finds the perfect room to rent in the beautiful area of Hampstead, London, he cannot believe his luck. The rent is beyond affordable, and his beautiful landlady already holds his attention. However, when Sebastian finds out the fate of Adriana's last tenant and that someone has their eyes on him at all times, his ideal life takes a dark turn. A. A. Chaudhuri is without a doubt one of my favourite authors. Each title I receive from her is a stunning, thrilling, wild ride and I am always in awe by the end. Under Her Roof is no different. I always adore the beginning of Chaudhuri's books; Under Her Roof begins at the end, with someone on trial for murder. This was the best way to start this title, as while I was reading my mind was often cast back to the start, keeping me well intrigued. After the e are then introduced to Sebastian, a young writer looking to move out of his friend Jasper's house and focus on his writing. Already, Chaudhuri has created...
A group of killers, a text that changes everything, a sea serpent, and a horde of ghosts. Zac and his 6 closest friends are a bunch of sweet, thoughtful and fun-loving people, aside from the fact they're all murderers, of course. Six years after swearing to take their secrets to the grave in Zac's creaky old house, someone from the group begins to kill again and Zac realises the only way forward is to confess to their crimes and stop the one relapsing on the sin of killing. However, is Zac in the right, or is he as much to blame as the others? Paul D Coombs is an author I admittedly had never heard of before, however, after Northodox Press sent me his latest title, The Great Orme , I was very much intrigued as to what kind of tale Coombs had spun. When settling down with a coffee and picking the bookmark to match the title, I was impressed, to say the least, at what I was reading. The first page alone set a brilliantly dark and macabre tone, leading me into the story of Zac and...
When reading an impactful title, such as Chandler Morrison's Dead Inside , one may have many questions for the author who crafted such a tale. I find myself lucky to be able to share an interview with Mr Morrison about one of the most interesting and awe-inspiring books I've ever read. First, a bit about Dead Inside ... A security guard goes about his day-to-day life, trying his best to stay under everyone's radar; and that's not just because he has one very peculiar, and many would argue sickening interest... See, this guard prefers the company of dead girls over living ones. However, one night he meets Helen, and realises that he's not the only one with nasty habits. I'm so pleased to have gotten the chance to interview the author of this devastatingly well-written and incredible title - enjoy! First of all - what inspired you to write this title? A lot of people assume I wrote it for shock value, which wasn’t the case at all. I never think about people’s p...
