BOOK OF THE WEEK:

Have a look at THE VALE VINEYARD KILLER by Frances Lloyd- an enthralling murder mystery  packed with twists  which will shock the most stoic of readers:

The Vale vineyard tour is disrupted by a nasty discovery. The lifeless body of Bob Beacham, the site manager, is found in a huge fermentation tank. He suffocated to death.  It looks like a tragic accident. That’s until the paramedics find a deep gash on the back of his head. It’s time to call in Detective Jack Dawes.

At only 99p / 99c for a limited time it’s a steal.


 

Meet Arnold Landon, mild-mannered history buff turned amateur sleuth. Roy Lewis has created a great character, and injected more than enough ups and downs to keep us turning those pages, or OK, they’re eBooks, but you get my meaning.

FIVE utterly gripping novels in one great-value box set The Arnold Landon Mysteries Books 1 – 5. For only 99p/99c.

Anyone interested in AUDIO?  Here you are, then. Just one of Joffe’s AUDIO offerings this week.

 

Marsh Light by Joy Ellis.

Matt and Liz may have retired from the police for a quiet life, but when an old friend’s sister disappears without a trace, they find themselves at the centre of another mystery . . .   There’s no sign of foul play until another friend goes missing late one night on the misty marshes of the Lincolnshire Fens.

Discover a totally enthralling psychological thriller by bestselling author Joy Ellis, narrated by Matthew Lloyd Davies.

Such a pleasure to meet ALEX SPEARS:  MARKETING MANAGER who tells us:

I am the latest recruit to the Joffe Books team, joining a new and revamped marketing department at an exciting time of growth. I will be investigating how we can sell more books, understand our readers better and work with our authors to get their books into the hands of as many readers as possible, all over the world.’

As for 2022, a the Frost Team totally agree with Alex’s  priorities-  the first of which is to make  sure he can work the expresso machine…

‘I’m looking forward to getting up to speed with Joffe’s publishing philosophy and programme and immersing myself in their brilliant books. I’ve already worked out how to use the espresso machine and am looking forward to building on this promising early momentum.’  

And the question that people invariably ask. what are Alex’s favourite books?

‘I love books which experiment with form and genre, like Roberto Bolaño’s 2666 and Lanark by Alasdair Gray. But crime fiction was my first love! As I child I devoured the Point Crime series, before working my way through swathes of pulp and detective fiction, and in recent years have loved Don Winslow’s The Cartel Trilogy and Tana French’s Dublin Murder Squad series.’
