LONGLISTED FOR THE CWA GOLD DAGGER
______________________

Nothing says Christmas like severed fingers

It's December and a serial killer is leaving body parts all over Cumbria.

Called in to investigate, the National Crime Agency's Washington Poe and Tilly Bradshaw are faced with a case that makes no sense. Why were the victims killed in such different ways? Why is their only suspect denying what they can irrefutably prove but admitting to things they weren't even aware of? And what could the cryptic message left at each scene - #BSC6 - possibly mean?

When a disgraced FBI agent gets in touch things take an even darker turn. Because she doesn't think Poe is dealing with a serial killer at all; she thinks he's dealing with someone far, far worse - a man who calls himself the Curator.

And if you think you know what's happening, you're exactly where he wants you to be...

'Witty, clever and shocking' Cumbria Life on The Curator

'Pacy, gory and clever' Crime Monthly on The Curator

'Atmospherically moody' Peterborough Telegraph on The Curator

'Unlike most procedurals; MW Craven grabs the reader by the scruff of the neck and drags them bodily over the grit and grimness of this expertly-crafted tale; leaving them bruised, broken, but ultimately satisified' Matt Wesolowski on The Curator

'Truly mind-blowing' A. A. Dhand on Black Summer

'A book that shines with tension, wit and invention' William Shaw on Black Summer

'Washington Poe - a rising giant in detective fiction' Alison Bruce on Black Summer

'A twisty thriller with a killer plot Ed James on Black Summer

'I loved this book!' Jo Jakeman on Black Summer

'One of the best British crime novels I've read in a long time . . . Simply an unputdownable page-turner' Nick Oldham on Black Summer

'Grabs you from the very first page. A dark and brilliantly twisted crime thriller, bringing back the inimitable Washington Poe and Tilly Bradshaw' Colin Falconer on Black Summer

'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 . . .' Fiona Cummins on Black Summer

'Dark, thrilling and unputdownable with sharply drawn characters that stride off the page' Victoria Selman on Black Summer

this whole story is pulled out of thin air and not even a very solid story line.

°As the readers we have to follow the line of enquiry the writer wants, but how the victims were related would have been flagged quickly by authorities.
°if you want to hear some gruesome brutality, that can't be survived like they are in this book, go for it!!!
° And then it's a stupid line of argumentation: if a rich man deals with the Iranians, and if the US secretly allows him to do so, provided he delivers intelligence, then the one who involuntary blows this operation by killing the rich man's son can hardly be called a terrorist.
