Critics Review
Dark, sharp and compelling
A book that shines with tension, wit and invention
A thrilling curtain-raiser for what looks set to be a great new series
Mike Craven is a forceful new voice in British crime fiction
Gripping. Taut. Twisty
Dark and twisted in all the right places. Poe is a great mix of compelling, complex & charismatic, and well on his way to becoming one of the standout characters in crime fiction
Fantastic
I cannot recall the last time I binge read a novel in 36 hours . . . truly mind-blowing
So dark and twisty
Satisfyingly twisty and clever and the flashes of humour work well to offer the reader respite from the thrill of the read
A powerful thriller from an explosive new talent. Tightly plotted, and not for the faint-hearted!
In Tilly and Poe, MW Craven has created a stand-out duo who are two of the most compelling characters in crime fiction in recent years. They deserve to join the ranks of Holmes and Watson, Rebus and Clarke, Hill and Jordan
Washington Poe is a name destined to be spoken by crime fiction enthusiasts everywhere: Britain’s answer to Harry Bosch . . . a wickedly, twisting and turning, mystery that will have readers breathlessly turning the pages until the final shocking conclusion
This book is twisted and dark and I loved it – not sure what that says about me
A brilliant start to what promises to be a fantastic series; get it now or kick yourself for missing out
Washington Poe – a rising giant in detective fiction
A twisty thriller with a killer plot, backed up by solid research with characters you’ll want to keep spending time with
One of the best British crime novels I’ve read in a long time. It’s a great, brilliantly researched plot, not so much a whodunnit, more how the hell can that be? Simply an unputdownable page-turner
Grabs you from the very first page. A dark and brilliantly twisted crime thriller, bringing back the inimitable Washington Poe and Tilly Bradshaw. You have to leave your fingerprints all over it
Dark, thrilling and unputdownable with sharply drawn characters that stride off the page
