|title=Bryant and May: The Bleeding Heart
|author=Christopher Fowler
|rating=4.5
|genre=Crime
|summary=''The Bleeding Heart'' is the eleventh outing for Fowler's distinctive detectives from the Peculiar Case Unit. If you've been along for the ride so far you'll either have fallen in love with them, or really not be able to see the joy of them. Either way, this review isn't going to tell you anything you don't already know, other than, yes, Fowler's still on form. Forgive me then, if I address the rest of my thoughts to those who've yet to stumble into the is backwater of the Metropolitan Police.

|summary=To create a true anti-hero is no easy task. I have read plenty of crime fiction that reports to have an unlikable son of a gun at the centre of the story, but rarely are they actually that bad. You might get a detective with a gruff exterior, but a kind heart. Or perhaps a career criminal whose sense of morals are actually better than the cops. Thank goodness then for Max Allan Collin’s ''Quarry'' novels. Old school murder mysteries that have a hitman at their heart (usually pointing his gun at it).

|title=Cherringham - Murder on Thames: A Cozy Crime Series
|rating=3
|genre=Crime
|summary=Sarah Edwards returned with her two children to sleepy Cherringham in the Cotswolds after her marriage fell apart. Jack Brennan was a homicide detective with NYPD and a year ago he lost his wife. All he wants now is peace and quiet and to that end he's living on a canal boat in Cherringham. Both of them thought that what they needed was to get away from the stress and strain - but they're just beginning to realise that there's something missing in their lives. Excitement.
