Vuelta Skelter is really three books in one. It's the story of Moore's own epic 2,760-mile, lung-busting, thigh-wrenching journey... It is a rich, kaleidoscopic look a the legacy of the Spanish Civil War... And it is also a tribute to Berrendero - a tough, dour loner who refuses to give an inch, either to the mountains or to the authorities... Moore wants to restore JB [Berrendero] to his proper place in the ranks of cycling legends. He succeeds superbly.

Marvellous

Reading Tim Moore is a joy... you will belly laugh at the bedraggled, gazpacho-guzzling figure Moore cuts in Vuelta Skelter... he emerges as a two-wheeled Groucho Marx and a thoughtful Simon Schama combined.

Vuelta Skelter's style is colloquial, full of jokes... the narrative races along like Berrendero on a good day... a valuable portrait of those post-war years of murder and hunger, and the modern Spain that still hardly dares mention them.

Vuelta Skelter...[is] his best cycling book yet. The mixture of the hilarious and the harrowing really shouldn't work but, in the hands of a writer as skilled as Moore, it deftly combines his trademark mischievous wit and a love of cycling.

The queen of just-one-more-chapter, Ruth Ware, has done it again.

I absolutely loved ONE BY ONE! Impossible to put down and perfectly claustrophobic and gorgeously atmospheric. Each twist was perfectly cued and plotted, showing Ruth to be the master storyteller we all know.

A fabulous psychological thriller and I loved the snowy setting! Incredibly tense and kept me guessing to the end

One of the best thriller writers around.

An epic talent

One By One has all the elements of a classic crime novel, brilliantly reinvented for the modern era with a dramatic setting, pin-sharp characterisation and up-to-the-minute plotting. It is fast-paced, astute and utterly compelling.

Blisteringly good

Sly satire and some bracingly unpleasant characters make for a fun read

With Ruth Ware, you always know to expect the unexpected... in her latest offering, Ruth goes full tilt cutting edge... the action is breakneck, the pace is breath-taking and the need to know whodunnit is all consuming

A high-tension treat with a Christie-ish twist... Cold sweat stuff!

A brilliant thriller

A thoroughly enjoyable and consistently inventive wintertime mystery

One by One goes full-tilt cutting-edge... Definitely one to be read in one sitting under a fur throw with a mug of mulled wine to hand

Greed, ambition, manipulation, secrets, nifty plotting and a cracking denouement add up to a suspenseful and spine-tingling page-turner

An engaging page-turner that will keep you guessing

One By One is a galloping read packed with dark secrets and all the page-turning prowess you would hope for from a psychological thriller and murder mystery

The Queen of the modern murder mystery returns with a delicious homage to Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None

Agatha Christie fans will love this ingenious thriller...the pace is fast and furious and the twists satisfying

Books shouldn't really be gobbled down like cake but with Ware's there's no other way

Ware's novel is deliciously sly

This engaging page-turner keeps you guessing

Writing with such honesty is a trademark of [Winn's] style

'Country Life Book of the Week'

Down to earth yet astonishing . . . touching

So beautifully told

Want a book that's going to leave you chilled to the bone? This is it!

Sarah Pearse's chilling debut is making waves. The Sanatorium certainly has an eerie, cinematic appeal [...] With whispers of The Shining in setting and The Girl on the Train in pace.

I absolutely loved The Sanatorium - it gave me all the wintry thrills and chills. It was just wonderful.

Genuinely scary and deliciously atmospheric, and one of the best books of 2021, this international bestseller is guaranteed to give you goosebumps.

What a page-turner! Like Agatha Christie crossed with Scandi noir, and doing with Swiss mountains what Jane Harper books do with the Australian outback. Loved it, and can't wait for the next Elin book!
