Weekend Reads – Two entertaining books

In the mood for a good book or two. Here’s what we recommend…

Dog Rose Dirt

What if your mother had been writing to a serial killer? A convicted murderer with a story to tell. Serial killer Michael Reave – known as The Red Wolf – has been locked in Belmarsh Prison for over 20 years for the brutal and ritualistic murders of countless women. When ex-journalist Heather Evans returns to her childhood home after her mother’s inexplicable suicide, she discovers something chilling … hundreds of letters between her mother and Reave, dating back decades. When the body of a woman is found decorated with flowers, just like Michael’s victims, Reave is the only person alive who could help. After years of silence, he will speak to Heather, and only Heather. If she wants to unearth the truth and stop further bloodshed, she’ll have to confront a monster. Dog Rose Dirt by Jen Williams is a chilling read … could well be the thriller of the month! HarperCollins.

About Us

Oh … we love a Sinéad Moriarty read. Always laugh-out-loud funny, keep-the-tissues on hand heartbreakingly real. About Us revolves around three couples, all at different stages of their lives. The couple who thought retirement would be their second spring; instead it’s an icy winter. The pair who were lovers, best friends, parents … in that order; now never mind being on the same page, they’re not even reading from the same book. And the couple who’re newly falling in love but her complicated past makes her unsure if she can have an intimate relationship. The perfect holiday read. Penguin.
