|title=The Atheist's Prayer
|author=Amy R Biddle
|rating=3.5
|genre=General Fiction
|summary=I don’t shy away from a book with a little edge, in fact [[:Category:Chuck Palahniuk|Chuck Palahniuk]] is one of my favourite authors and his books can be so sharp you can shave with them. On the surface ''The Atheist’s Prayer'' would seem to be courting controversy; why else have such a provocative title? But, is it really that shocking? Nope. This is a story about how people deal with the modern world and what happens when dangerous ideals infect a vulnerable group.

|summary=Inspector Louise Nightingale is investigating a series of sexual attacks which are becoming increasingly violent. The latest victim is in hospital and Nightingale sees something of her younger self in the girl in the bed. Jenni has been sleeping rough. It's not her real name, but she's ''very'' insistent about the ''i''. Superintendent Andrew Fenwick is brought in to investigate the disappearance of seventeen-year-old Isabel Mattias, the daughter of an artist and a rock star who died five years ago in a car crash. She disappeared from her exclusive boarding school, but has she run away or been abducted? Her friends seem unwilling to provide much information and even the teachers feel that respecting Issie's privacy is important.

|title=We'll be Watching You
|rating=3
|genre=Crime
|summary=It wasn't that Christine Brett was exactly nosy, but life hadn't treated her particularly kindly recently. Her marriage had ended in divorce and she'd lost her job. Here she was, middle-aged and back living with her mother. And checking that people were not breaking the law was a ''duty'' not a ''pleasure''. Admittedly some of her accusations had been wide of the mark, but she had been a witness when the robbers left the hypermarket and the face of the driver of the getaway car was familiar - if only she could place it. Unfortunately Christine had cried wolf too often and the local police weren't too inclined to give her much credence.
