If you haven't given the Women's Murder Club series a go, it's an excellent introduction to James Patterson.

My favourite author of all time is James Patterson.

An intriguing, moving novel that will make you question assumptions you have about modern life

Superb...deservedly longlisted for this year's Women's Prize for Fiction

A moving portrait of a family struggling against time. This book is ultimately about redemption-about the unexpected importance of neighbours, lovers, and friends, and the ways in which we can re-envision our lives for the better

So sharply, so utterly brilliant that I found myself holding my breath while reading it, dazzled by Fuller's mastery and precision.

With sensitivity and intelligence, Fuller unpicks the relentless complexity of the modern world

'The way she writes (with empathy but never sentimentality) moves my heart'

Fuller is excellent at description, and capturing the twins' awkward interactions with the world. The fate of the illiterate and weak-hearted Jeanie once she loses everything that is safe is particularly unsettling

It's merciless in its observation of casual cruelty and merciful in its observation of casual kindness and family love

Unsettled Ground is another sly psychological treat from Claire Fuller, who just keeps on getting better with each book

These memorable characters will worm their way into your head and heart and the descriptions of the landscape are beautiful.

An atmospheric thriller that's both heartbreaking and heartwarming

Tender, unusual... these memorable characters will work their way into your head and your heart

Fuller's prose is darkly elegant, her eye for character astute and humane, and her sense of place vividly atmospheric -- here is a writer of great skill, sensitivity and subtlety

Claire Fuller strikes the perfect balance between beauty and melancholy, in this relevant and powerful exploration of isolation and life on the fringes of society

Unsettled Ground shares with Fuller's previous works themes of closely guarded family secrets and homes built upon shaky foundations

This literary thriller is as moving and poignant as it is compelling

These memorable characters will worm their way into your head and heart the descriptions of the landscape are beautiful

A historical episode artfully adapted in a tale that offers glimmers of hope for women discarded by society

Wonderful, evocative, moving and suspenseful

A vivid, cleverly-crafted mystery that will keep the reader turning the pages

It's a fantastically exciting story, and a wonderful novel. There is so much more going on, on the Rajah, in this unity of women, than a simple love story

Transforms an actual 19th-century sea voyage of female convicts into a striking drama. The ship's young matron chooses a group to sew a presentation quilt, but near their destination, someone stabs one of the quilters. Evocative sketches of those on board reveal the realities of poor women's lives - readers will be rewarded

A murder mystery with a great twist at the end . . . Gripping

Dangerous Women is a successful blend of two genres: a historical novel, inspired by real events, and a murder mystery with a great twist at the end. By the time I was halfway through I was completely gripped, and couldn't put it down

An enthralling narrative . . . lays bare the painful lives of these women, far from their homes and loved ones, and feeling the brutal weight of the law

This atmospheric narrative excels in its depiction of the relationship between female prisoners - largely petty criminals - and the tragic backstories that have brought them together

Packed with atmosphere . . . a terrific read

A very fine novel - and, like the quilt it celebrates, a work of love

Utterly compelling and as finely wrought as the patchwork quilt that inspired the story

Fascinating. Gives women without one a voice - a storming read

A compelling, immersive book that deftly weaves its beauty and pathos. I'm still thinking about it

An enthralling story, inspired by true events

A secret murder on a convict ship transporting women to Australia in 1841 . . . this is an intriguing story, with its root embedded in facts

Intriguing . . . [Hope Adams] can stitch a great story

In vivid detail, Hope Adams illuminates life in convict quarters on a stinking, storm-soaked ship, and delves into the lives of individual women and the small tragedies that have condemned them to be sent far away, with little hope of return

A well-paced page-turner illuminating a forgotten story that reminds us how far we have come

Pulls you into the heart of its story, while celebrating redemption, rehabilitation and the good in people. All set to the backdrop of a truly fascinating slice of history

Historical events and characters are cleverly blended into a thought-provoking tale

Adams disguises a social-history lesson on women's rights as a gripping period drama
