“This nail-biting thriller explores the fine line between justice and revenge and it’s a novel which will be remembered long after you finish it — it’s a triumph.” Very chuffed with this The Irish Examiner review of The One You Least Suspect.

Thanks to Fiona Gartland and the Irish Times for this lovely piece on my writing and the new book. You can read the full piece here: www.irishtimes.com/culture/book...

Lovely review in the Irish Independent for The One You Least Suspect (out Thurs): "An utterly believable and breathlessly exciting examination of the distrust and suspicion that still permeates post-Good Friday Agreement life in the North from the pen of a true master of Ulster noir crime fiction.”

Coming to it a year late, but this novel from @rebeccamakkai.bsky.social is just wonderful. Beautifully written, thoughtful and challenging. A masterclass in writing.

Sentimental Moment or Why Did the Baguette Cross the Road? Don't fill up on bread I say absent-mindedly The servings here are huge My son, whose hair may be receding a bit, says Did you really just say that to me? What he doesn't know is that when we're walking together, when we get to the curb I sometimes start to reach for his hand —Robert Hershon

This wrecks me—every single time.

Please spread the word to any aspiring crime-writers out there. The competition will be judged by award-winning authors. Might be a kickstart to someone's career.

Hello from Harrogate International Festivals! Obligatory first post on Bluesky – please RT to let people know that we are here. Looking forward to finding friends and building networks!

I know I’m woefully late to the party, but have finally (binge) watched Detectorists the past week or two and it’s just wonderful: full of gentleness and decency. And so beautifully written.

Thank you, Hope.
