A freezing cold winter. A dead body from the past. A tale of love – and murder. A human leg is discovered in a suburban freezer. The victim is a teenage girl killed some ten years earlier. But then other body parts start appearing. And these ones are male, dark-skinned, and very fresh… Is this a tangled tale of love gone wrong? Or are there more sinister lines connecting the dead bodies to a recent tragedy in a Cardiff prison, and an engineering company that’s up to a whole lot more than is first apparent? Fiona Griffiths starts to investigate, in the midst of the coldest winter on record. Up in a remote cottage in the Welsh Black Mountains, she finds the data that contains the clue to the entire mystery. But, as the first snow starts to fall, she discovers that she’s not alone…

DC Fiona Griffiths is called to join in a very large team of Welsh officers when the leg of a dead young woman is found in the garage freezer of a deceased elderly lady. Soon, many other body parts of the woman is discovered in the neighboring suburbs and the body is identified as that of a missing young woman from ten years ago. Only a few clearly male body parts are also discovered and Fiona is drawn into a complicated puzzle.

This is the second book involving Fiona Griffiths and her unusual outlook and I enjoyed this one as thoroughly as the first. Readers should know that while this book can easily be read by itself – Fiona is quite a quirky character and this book might be easier to grasp having read the first. That said the plot and much of Fiona’s character growth is very well encapsulated in this story.

I loved the setting of Wales. This atmosphere felt quite a bit grittier and harder than many of the British police procedurals I regularly read. Fiona is also quite a complicated character and I find her perspective on things to be unique and highly enjoyable to read. I also clearly acknowledge that this very different perspective won’t suit every readers tastes. With a somewhat grim and non-standard outlook readers who enjoy a cozier style of mystery might not find this clicks quite right with them.

With a strong cast of secondary characters, a very different style of story being told and a strong and deliciously complicated series of murders I found this to be an exceptional book and one I thoroughly enjoyed. I am eagerly looking forward to the next installment. Recommended.

Temperament – A Novella by K. Aurum

The stroke took his hand. The implant gave it back. Then it kept going.
Jon Finn was a violinist before a stroke stole his right side and his voice. The experimental device his doctors offer is a quiet miracle: it restores his hand, his speech, his playing. His recovery astonishes the hospital. His bowing has never been cleaner. He and the woman he loves have never fought less.

And, note by note, word by word, he is vanishing.

The implant doesn’t take his life. It takes his self: smoothing the edges, finishing the sentences, choosing the notes he used to reach for. Everyone sees a man restored. Only Jon feels his own wanting drain away.

Spare, unsettling, and quietly devastating, Temperament is a debut novella about identity, illness, and the hidden cost of being made better; a story that grows shorter and quieter as its narrator disappears.

Written by a practicing physician, it lingers where medicine can’t answer: when everything you can do remains, and only the you is gone, is that still you?

Sometimes science fiction is about asking questions that many people would rather ignore.

The author did an excellent job of exploring the ethical implications of using a artificial intelligence for medical purposes. Whether or not readers agree with the conclusions certain characters came to didn’t necessarily matter. An intelligent argument could be made for many different points of view, and even the ones I didn’t personally agree with still followed a logical and understandable path from one assertion to the next. This is the sort of discussion I’m drawn to when reading this genre, and it was handled smoothly here.

It would have been nice to see more clues added earlier on in the storyline about what was truly going on with Jon’s cognition. As much as I enjoyed being able to come up with my own theories about what was happening to him, this would have been an even stronger piece of work in my opinion if the author had spent more time developing the beginning and perhaps allowing a bit more of his opinion of how the final scene should be interpreted to bleed through, so to speak.

The deliciously ambiguous ending was what encouraged me to select a four-star rating for this tale. I appreciated the fact that it could be interpreted in multiple ways. While I don’t want to influence how other readers understood those last few sentences, their ability to be understood from so many different points of view reinforced my own assumptions about what was happening and made me shudder in a good way.

Temperament – A Novella reminded me why I like speculative fiction so much.

Desert Star by Michael Connelly

Desert Star by Michael Connelly
Publisher: Allen & Unwin
Genre: Contemporary, Mystery/Suspense/Thriller
Rating: 5 stars
Reviewed by Fern

A year has passed since LAPD detective Renée Ballard quit the force in the face of misogyny, demoralization, and endless red tape. But after the chief of police himself tells her she can write her own ticket within the department, Ballard takes back her badge, leaving “the Late Show” to rebuild and lead the cold case unit at the elite Robbery-Homicide Division.

For years, Harry Bosch has been working a case that haunts him—the murder of an entire family by a psychopath who still walks free. Ballard makes Bosch an offer: come volunteer as an investigator in her new Open-Unsolved Unit, and he can pursue his “white whale” with the resources of the LAPD behind him.

First priority for Ballard is to clear the unsolved rape and murder of a sixteen-year-old girl. The decades-old case is essential to the councilman who supported re-forming the unit, and who could shutter it again—the victim was his sister. When Ballard gets a “cold hit” connecting the killing to a similar crime, proving that a serial predator has been at work in the city for years, the political pressure has never been higher. To keep momentum going, she has to pull Bosch off his own investigation, the case that is the consummation of his lifelong mission.

The two must put aside old resentments and new tensions to run to ground not one but two dangerous killers who have operated with brash impunity.

It’s been a year since Detective Renee Ballard quit the LAPD, only to promptly return when offered her dream position. By doing so, she left Harry Bosch – and their joint dreams of working together – in the dust. Now, Ballard has reached out to Bosch, to request he join her new fledgling Open Unsolved division and help keep it alive. Can Bosch and Ballard return to working together when so much resentment still bubbles between them?

I’ve been reading this series for more than twenty years now, and still I find Bosch to be a gripping, page turning read – one that almost never fails to pull me out of a reading slump. Bosch is absolutely getting on in years now (aren’t we all?) and I appreciate Connelly not making Bosch able to easily run and jump and climb and do stuff virtually no seventy-something man can do no matter how fit or strong. Still mentally sharp, with decades of experience and the savvy knowledge of where to place one punch (instead of starting to brawl or chase) I found Bosch a joy to read.

Even though it’s set in modern – post covid – times, this book really retained that grittier, older style boiled detective feel that the series as a whole has always held for me. I felt the blend of old school and newer requirements was brilliantly handled. Things like a quasi psychic working on the team doing the genealogy/ancestry tracing online and through the web records mingled with Bosch’s knock on doors and well worn shoe leather really resonated with me and helped me turn these pages long past my bed time.

I also enjoyed how Ballard and Bosch both managed to work together while respecting each other’s strengths – and weaknesses. They can each be somewhat prickly and I remain firm in my opinion the reason they are able to work so well together is despite their differences in personality and approach, beneath it all they respect each other and value what they can both contribute. With that underpinning every step – even when they’re out of synch or frustrated with each other – there isn’t much they can’t both come back from with a bit of time, space and discussion.

Readers should know there is a wealth of history backing this series – it spans back to The Black Echo first published in 1992 – and I can thoroughly recommend this series as a whole for those who like a slightly gritter, more old school hard boiled police procedural series. That said, I feel this book can absolutely be read as a stand alone.

I feel the working relationship between Ballard and Bosch is well detailed as is the very cold case Bosch is determined to solve – and the carrot Ballard uses to lure Bosch onto her team. I do feel readers should be able to thoroughly understand and enjoy this book just picking it up by itself. But you’re missing out on an exceptional series if you’re not tempted to go back to the beginning and enjoy every part of this story. Highly recommended.

A Larkspur Hollow Garden Club Mystery, book 1
Publisher: Self-Published
Genre: Cozy Mystery, Contemporary
Rating: 3 Stars

Thirty years buried. Forty-eight puzzles to the truth.

“Could such an interactive combination truly work? The answer is a resounding ‘Yes.'” — C.R. Hurst for Readers’ Favorite, 5 Stars

In the village of Larkspur Hollow, Vermont, everyone agreed that Cora Whitaker ran off in disgrace the summer of 1995. Everyone was wrong. Now her body has been found beneath the roses she once tended — and retired schoolteacher Eleanor “Nell” Ashworth is the only one still asking who put her there.

But this time, the detective is you.

Each chapter hands you a scene and a word search. Solve the puzzle, and the leftover letters reveal a hidden clue — a suspect cleared, a motive exposed, a secret the Hollow buried right alongside Cora. Track them across forty-eight puzzles and you’ll be ready to name the killer, the motive, the weapon, and the place before Nell does.

Six suspects. One garden full of secrets. A verdict only you can reach.

A complete solve-along mystery — no apps required. Just you, a pencil, and forty-eight word searches that build to a single solution. Perfect for cozy-mystery lovers and puzzlers alike.

Sharpen your pencil. Larkspur Hollow is waiting.

Unlike some plants, secrets can bloom anywhere.

It made me smile to see how small town politics played out in this mystery. While it isn’t strictly required to know about such things in advance, there were a few fun references to this cultural experience tucked here and there for those of us who have either grown up in such communities or who have other close ties to them. I was especially amused by the complex relationships between characters who had known each other for thirty years and sometimes much longer than that. They rang true and made this an even more engrossing read for me.

The limited amount of character and plot development was what ultimately lead me to choose a three-star rating. As much as I enjoyed solving the word-search puzzles at the end of every chapter and narrowing down my list of suspects, among other aspects of this case, there simply wasn’t much space for developing the characters or including as many plot twists as I was hoping to see. This is something I’m saying as someone who was excited to pick this book up and was hoping to give it a much higher rating. The framework for a potential five-star read was there, it simply needed to be fleshed out in order for me to feel justified in giving that rating.

With that being said, I loved the amount of audience participation that the author expected of his readers. This was the kind of tale that needed my full attention not only while I was in the middle of a chapter but also while I was writing down the clues and solving the word search puzzles. It was such a unique way to draw readers in and make this one feel as though I was playing an integral role in solving the case.

The Buried Bloom was an intriguing start to a new series.

The October Man by Ben Aaronovitch

The October Man by Ben Aaronovitch
Publisher: Gollancz
Genre: Contemporary, Paranormal, Mystery/Suspense/Thriller
Rating: 4 stars
Reviewed by Fern

With this long new novella, bestselling author Ben Aaronovitch has crafted yet another wickedly funny and surprisingly affecting chapter in his beloved Rivers of London series.

If you thought magic was confined to one country—think again.

Trier: famous for wine, Romans and being Germany’s oldest city.

When a man is found dead with his body impossibly covered in a fungal rot, the local authorities know they are out of their depth. But fortunately this is Germany, where there are procedures for everything.

Enter Tobias Winter, an investigator for the Abteilung KDA, the branch of the German Federal Criminal Police which handles the supernatural. His aim is to get in, deal with the problem, and get out with the minimum of fuss, personal danger and paperwork.

Together with frighteningly enthusiastic local cop, Vanessa Sommer, he quickly links the first victim to a group of ordinary middle aged men whose novel approach to their mid-life crisis may have reawakened a bloody conflict from a previous century.

As the rot spreads, literally, and the suspect list extends to people born before Frederick the Great, Tobias and Vanessa will need to find allies in some unexpected places.

And to solve the case they’ll have to unearth the secret magical history of a city that goes back two thousand years.

Presuming that history doesn’t kill them first.

Investigator Tobias Winter is called in to help the local police when a strange fungal rot appears to have possibly killed someone. The local police are at a loss, and in Germany there is thankfully a procedure to handle everything – even the unknown. Tobias soon uncovers some of the city’s history – and magic – and complications begin to arise.

I have been loving the Rivers Of London series and was rather thrilled to find this novella takes the same quirky, paranormal mystery world and expands it out of England and into Germany. I strongly feel that readers who aren’t sure whether they’re wanting to dip a toe into this series could easily start here. The writing style and general laugh aloud, tongue in cheek banter is very present in this story, along with the strong mystery and very well balanced magical and paranormal world. Basically I felt this story had all the strong points of the main books, just with some new characters, a new country and a shorter length.

While I do admit the shorter story length does mean the plot wasn’t as complicated and convoluted as I’m used to in this series I absolutely feel the author did the plot justice. I also enjoyed the layers to the characters and am rather hoping sometime down the track we shall revisit both Germany and Tobias and Vanessa.

With a fully magical and paranormal world on offer, the new setting of Germany and a bunch of new characters, I found this to be a highly enjoyable story and a quick and wonderful read. Recommended.

A Body in the Garden

While Esmé Proudfoot watches the chaos caused by her neighbour’s landscape gardeners from her kitchen window, a shocking discovery is made—a man’s body hidden in the undergrowth. The police quickly conclude it’s a case of natural causes, believing the man to be a lost hiker who tripped and fell on a rock. However, Esmé isn’t convinced. Together with the young lodger in her attic, she embarks on a mission to uncover the truth about the man’s identity and what led him to her garden.

Esme Proudfoot is an elderly but still spry retired widow. She and her young lodger are drawn into the curious mystery of the dead body found in their neighbor’s yard – hidden in the undergrowth and discovered by some landscape gardeners. Can Esme and Amos unearth the truth of what happened to the dead man?

I greatly enjoyed this cozy mystery, set in a small English town and with the unusual combination of a spry elderly lady and young male lodger amateur detectives. I found the main characters to be fresh and delightfully relatable. The authors tone and style were also very comfortable and chatty to my mind and something I could easily pick up and get into.

This is the first book in apparently three, and I thoroughly enjoyed the cozy, amateur mystery and definitely will be picking up the next one. I’ve read a few books by this author – the first books in her two other series – and find that I really enjoy her voice and style.

Readers who enjoy small country town mysteries should absolutely find this as enjoyable as I have. With different but still modern and relatable characters, a well written plot that is both fun and easily followed and a chatty sort of style this is a fun read and one I easily fell into.

A great author and enjoyable book. I’m looking forward to the next one.

Unravel – The ADHD Mindset Framework by Blythe Carrow

Unravel – The ADHD Mindset Framework by Blythe Carrow

Reviewed by Astilbe

Stop the spiral and start the framework.

Most ADHD strategies fail because they focus on “trying harder” rather than understanding the neurodivergent loop. Unravel: The ADHD Mindset Framework is a comprehensive guide to the NOTICE, ANCHOR, RELEASE methodology—a proven psychological system designed to bypass executive function burnout and build sustainable momentum.

This framework isn’t about fixing your brain; it’s about untangling the friction points that keep you stuck in task paralysis. Inside this guide, you will discover:

The NOTICE Phase: How to identify the physical and mental triggers of an ADHD spiral before it takes over.

The ANCHOR Phase: Practical grounding techniques to stabilize your focus in high-stress environments.

The RELEASE Phase: A structured approach to closing open mental loops and reducing cognitive load.

Whether you are newly diagnosed or a veteran of the neurodivergent journey, this framework provides the “operating manual” your brain has been missing.

Building habits can be helpful for all sorts of people, especially those with ADHD.

The mindful approach to this subject matter was an intelligent one. Paying attention to one’s thoughts and feelings in the moment can be an important part of breaking habits that aren’t working for someone and beginning new habits that will hopefully make life a little easier. Repetition and remaining in the moment as much as one can no matter what else is happening are both important for this process.

I did find myself wishing that the author could have gone into more detail about how the NAR (Notice, Anchor, Release) method works. While there was an explanation given, of course, it needed to be brief due to how short this piece was and how little space there was for sharing multiple examples of how it worked or otherwise expanding the definition of this acronym. This was the only thing holding me back from selecting a full five-star rating as the advice itself was practical, evidence-based, and easy to begin working with.

With that being said, the brevity of it also made sense given the subject matter. Sometimes people who have ADHD can struggle with paying attention, so keeping this a succinct read could be helpful with that possible complication of this diagnosis as well. With only about six pages to work through, this is something that can be enjoyed in a single sitting for those who’d rather get straight to the point and start applying Ms. Carrow’s advice to their own lives.

Unravel – The ADHD Mindset Framework was a helpful read.

A young mother.
A quiet new home.
A voice that should not be there.

Genna thought this house would be a fresh start.

After months of exhaustion, panic, and holding herself together for her baby son, she needs somewhere quiet. Somewhere safe. Somewhere that can finally feel like home.

At first, the house gives her exactly that.

Then, through the static, she hears a woman whisper:

He’s not safe.

There is no recording. No proof. Nothing anyone else can hear.

But the warnings keep coming.

Someone has been watching. Someone knows this house.

As the signs move closer, Genna begins to wonder whether the locked doors are keeping danger out…

or keeping her exactly where someone wants her.

Not every home is a safe one.

This novella was perfectly paced and deliciously scary, especially given the fact that everything in it could have easily happened in real life. There was never a point when the suspense tapered off enough for me to feel comfortable putting this down to do something else. Instead, I felt a pang of regret every time I had to take a break which is exactly what I love to find in this genre.

The character development was strong but also a little ambiguous at times. Sometimes I wondered if Genna’s perception of events matched what was really happening due to how much she worried about everything involving her infant son, although I must leave it up to other readers to decide for themselves how trustworthy her perception of everything was. What was more important to me was how she reacted to the subtle threats that kept being made against her family.

I should note that there was a cliffhanger ending which felt perfectly appropriate for the beginning of a new series. Of course certain reader questions must be put off until the sequels arrive for something like this. That’s honestly half of the fun of reading this sort of thing, and I liked the fact that Ms. Bohane was so comfortable leaving her audience hanging…for now. This was an excellent example of how to write this sort of ending in a satisfying matter while also remaining true to everything that needs to remain mysterious until the final book is released.

Love, Fail, Repeat Part I – Not Safe was a chilling thriller that kept me on my seat from the first sentence to the last one.

On the hottest day of the year, 11-year-old Blair Smeaton vanishes near a riverbank, leaving police baffled and desperate. Detective Anna Gwynne, still haunted by her recent trauma, uncovers a sinister connection to an unsolved case. A chilling dark web photo reveals Blair trapped in the same room where a previous victim was once held captive ten years earlier. A captive whose remains, found near Charterhouse in the Mendip Hills, form the basis of the cold case she’s investigating.

The killer isn’t hiding; he’s taunting.

With Blair’s life hanging by a thread, Anna turns to a dangerous contact who can navigate the murky waters of the internet. But will trusting him save Blair—or cost Anna everything?

DI Anna Gwynne is almost recovered from the brutal ending of her previous case, but despite that she’s eager to return to work and a sense of normalcy. Her team continues to review and investigate cold cases, and it’s the unsolved child kidnapping that draws Anna fully back to work. When a recent photo on the dark web links their cold case with a very recent similar child kidnapping Anna and her team are once again drawn into a deadly game they still don’t fully understand.

This is the second book in the Black Squid trilogy and I found it every bit as gripping and well written as the first book. This kidnapping case and the particulars surrounding it can definitely be read as a stand alone book I feel – but the overall arc of this trilogy and some of the bigger picture items might have more emotional impact on the reader if they go back and read the trilogy in order. I absolutely enjoyed both these book a lot but as a police procedural and mystery this can be thoroughly enjoyed alone too.

I admit that I really enjoy Anna’s character. She’s different in many ways to Dylan’s other characters – especially those in his main series (DI Evan Warlow – another exceptional series to pick up) in that she uses her intuition rather a lot more than most police detective series that I’ve read.

I completely understand this won’t be every readers cup of tea – using instinct and even their dreams to help lead them down their investigative paths and to be fair Anna is a very long way from fully relying on these tools. There is ample amounts of following evidence, forensics, interviews and all the regular processes. I just really enjoy – and find refreshing and interesting – the fact Anna is a lot more open to listening to her subconscious making connections and even being open minded to rather more unusual voices of opinion. I feel this really sets this book and trilogy apart from the rest and for me, personally, I thoroughly enjoy it and would love a whole lot more of it.

Readers looking for a slightly different police procedural, full of well layered plot, different and interesting characters plus a bit more leaning into the thriller aspect and not just the regular mystery/suspense style of plot – this trilogy should absolutely be up your alley. These themes are a little darker than the usual fare – a little gritter and for those who like a bit more bite to their mystery and not the more cosy style.

A thoroughly gripping mystery and I’m very eager to read the final installment in this trilogy. Recommended.

When Marv traces a mysterious transmission to an abandoned house, he’s ready to finally uncover proof of an otherworldly invasion. But when he and his friends sneak inside, they don’t find aliens.

Instead, they find a dusty basement full of musical instruments.

To Marv’s friends, this means one thing: instant rock band. But Marv was right to be suspicious. Strange shadows reach from the walls. Faces flicker in the dark. Worst of all, his friends start acting off. Like they’re not entirely themselves anymore.

And it’s happening to Marv, too.

Suddenly, he can play guitar like a total legend-no practice, no lessons, no explanation. But every note pulls him in deeper. The thoughts in his head aren’t all his. And the music doesn’t want to stop.

Can Marv uncover the truth behind the transmission before he loses himself completely?

Because something else is listening to the broadcast. And it’s not here for the music.

Not every wish should come true.

The paranormal subplot was a surprising and welcomed addition to this universe. While I can’t go into much detail about it without accidentally sharing spoilers, what I can say is that it added another layer of depth to what I already knew about this universe and could be a fantastic springboard for future adventures if the author is planning to write more about these characters. I don’t know if that will happen, of course, but he left plenty of space here for further explorations of the world Marv and his friends live in which, if nothing else, provides a lot of fodder for the imagination in the meantime.

I mentioned wanting more character development in my review of book one, I Know What UFO Did Last Summer. This was once again something that came to mind while I was reading, but this time it involved the secondary characters instead of the protagonist. As much as I enjoyed the plot and world building, I was hoping to get to know Marv’s friends better by this point. Although I could easily describe his personality and habits, it’s something I’d struggle with a bit if someone asked about what Jace, Kenji, Nora, or Liv were like. If as much attention had been paid to this as was given to describing their interest in aliens, I would have happily gone for a full five-star rating.

This is the third instalment of a series, but it works perfectly well as a standalone story, too. With that being said, there were some wonderful references and callbacks to the first two stories included here. One of them involved a fun plot twist related to previously-introduced characters that I didn’t see coming in advance, so do keep an eye out for it if you’re already familiar with these characters. Balancing the expectations of new and returning readers isn’t always easy, and I must tip my cap at Mr. Garone for making things accessible and amusing for everyone.

The Band From Another World (Alien Survival Guide Book 3) was a wild ride that still has me wondering what might happen next.
