Review of White Raven by Maggie Ritchie

Today is my stop on the blog tour for White Raven by Maggie Ritchie.

It’s 1956 and Rosie is bored with life as an art teacher at a girls school in Edinburgh. Then while out walking, she recognises Alex Kuznetsov from years back when they both worked at Bletchley during the war.

Alex is running a language school and an intensive intelligence operation as fears of a future war grow.

Alex persuades Rosie to join him in an art teacher role. However, it soon becomes clear that there is much more to this job and before long Rosie finds herself deep in a world of spying and treachery.

This was such an interesting story and was inspired by the real roles played by Scottish women during the 1950s.

I would recommend this for fans of historical fiction.

Review of Whisky World Tour by Joel Harrison

Today is my stop on the Whisky World Tour by Joel Harrison.

We often visit different distilleries when we are in Scotland I have been looking for a book about whisky.

What I liked about this book is that it has a focus on the distillery and its history, as well as the whisky itself.

I have visited quite a few of the Scottish distilleries mentioned in the book and found the information about the ones elsewhere very interesting.

I would recommend this for whisky fans.

Review of The House at Devil's Neck by Tom Mead

Today is my stop on the blog tour for The House at Devil’s Neck by Tom Mead.

It was great to be reunited with illusionist turned sleuth Joseph Spector as he investigates his most disturbing case yet.

It’s August 1939 and Devil’s Neck is an old mansion that was once used as a hospital during the First World War. It’s well known as a spooky setting and has visitors flocking from afar.

After hearing that the house is haunted by an old soldier, Spector decides to pay a visit

However, when the house is cut off by the causeway and the stranded guests start dying one by one, it seems there is something more sinister.

Can Spector and his old ally Inspector Flint get to the bottom of this or are they also at risk of becoming a victim?

This was such a gripping read. I loved the setting and couldn’t put this down.
