Hi Gordon - I wonder if you've come across my book? Cut Short is the first in a new series of British crime thrillers. Thanks to reviews and word of mouth it's been selling so well that my publisher had to reprint less than two months after the launch. More on my blog if you have time and interest. Thank you and yes, I'm a fan of the Rap Sheet (of course!)
ReplyDeleteCongrats to S.J. Rozan. "Winter and Night" is a darn good read. It's a book which I will never forget.
