"It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas . . . For most people, that means a time of celebration, relaxation and inebriation, but not for the staff of The Stranger Times. While a book club meeting ending in a triple murder isn’t unprecedented, it is at least noteworthy. It quickly emerges that this is … Continue reading #BookReview: Ring the Bells by C.K.

"Some comebacks can be murder . . . Stella is enjoying life as an almost student, or at least she is until a man falls from the sky right in front of her, leaving a big old hole in the pavement for Manchester Council to fill. The obvious question of how he ended up in … Continue reading #BookReview: Relight My Fire by C.K.

#BookReview: Love Will Tear Us Apart by C.K. McDonnell @TransworldBooks @cobaltdinosaur #LoveWillTearUsApart #GuestReview #BookTwitter #damppebbles

"Love can be a truly terrible thing. Marriages are tricky at the best of times, especially when one of you is dead. Vincent Banecroft, the irascible editor of The Stranger Times, has never believed his wife died despite emphatic evidence to the contrary. Now, against all odds, it seems he may actually be proved right; but … Continue reading #BookReview: Love Will Tear Us Apart by C.K.

"Vampires do not exist. Everyone knows this. So it's particularly annoying when they start popping up around Manchester . . . Nobody is pleased about it. Not the Founders, the secret organisation for whom vampires were invented as an allegory, nor the Folk, the magical people hidden in plain sight who only want a quiet … Continue reading #BookReview: This Charming Man by C.K.

"There are dark forces at work in our world (and in Manchester in particular), so thank God The Stranger Times is on hand to report them . . .A weekly newspaper dedicated to the weird and the wonderful (but mostly the weird), it is the go-to publication for the unexplained and inexplicable.At least that's their pitch. … Continue reading #BookReview: The Stranger Times by C.K.

"Genie has everything – a BRIT award, a singing career, the attention of the press and Oliver Fox, a pretty boy who looks good on her arm. Until he dies. His death brings Genie’s long buried feelings bubbling to the surface. Her grief over the death of her lover Wendi who introduced her to this … Continue reading #BlogTour | #GuestReview: Comeback by Chris Limb (@catmachine) @unbounders @cobaltdinosaur #Comeback #damppebbles
