Longlisted for the Crime Writers' Association Gold Dagger 2021
'Dark, sharp and compelling' PETER JAMES
'Fantastic' MARTINA COLE
'Britain's answer to Harry Bosch' MATT HILTON
'A powerful thriller from an explosive new talent' DAVID MARK
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...
*THE NEW THRILLER FROM THE WINNER OF THE CWA BEST CRIME NOVEL OF 2019 AWARD*

'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
'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' Robert Scragg 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
'Gleefully gory and witty, with a terrific sense of place' Sunday Times on Black Summer©2020 M. W. Craven
4.5, I really enjoyed this book and I am so glad I came across this series. Consistently solid, entertaining mysteries with a cast of well-developed, sympathetic characters that I feel like I've known for way more than just three books. Even Tilly has grown on me, her weird mannerisms feeling less forced and more natural.
Somewhere in the early part of the book, Poe exclaims that he hates killers who have a gimmick. I laughed at that a bit, because I love it, and MW Craven never disappoints on the weird gimmick front. This one was particularly good, because there was the primary killer and then a sort of behind the scenes plot that was very satisfying (if a bit predictable. Somehow you kind of have a feeling fairly early on, but think, nah, that'd be a bit much, wouldn't it? And then boom, turns out...)
There's not much more to say, really. Great book, great fun, and an enticing set up at the end for the next installment!
excellent narrator
