The Gardeners' Club
Marnie Riches

When Gill Swanley decides to take up gardening to fight the menopause she never expected it to become quite such a threatening hobby...

Joining the Bromley chapter of The Golden Trowel Gardening Society, Gill finds a group run by self-proclaimed horticultural guru Mike ‘Potato’ Berisford and top of the agenda is how the club can snatch the National Gardening Club of the Year Award.

But when a dead body turns up in the greenhouse, and a brick flies through the window telling them to take themselves out of the running, the group have to turn their attention to the sinister goings on.

Is is their arch-rivals Croydon? Or is someone someone else is targeting their rag tag group?

Rogue
Paul Finch

They shot everyone. His friends, his colleagues, the woman he loved. But they made one critical mistake. They didn’t shoot him.

Detective Sergeant Mark ‘Heck’ Heckenburg has a reputation for bending the rules, but when a ruthless gun attack on a North London pub leaves 26 of his closest workmates dead, he throws the rulebook away.

Devastated beyond recovery, he goes rogue.

But Heck himself is a suspect. Suspended from duty and watched day and night, it isn’t just a matter of eluding the surveillance net in London. When he makes his move, he becomes a fugitive, an outlaw now infamous across the whole of the UK.

And yet that’s the least of his problems. Because as Heck tracks the killers north through the wintry badlands of industrial England, and from there into the mountainous wilds of Scotland, they too have made plans, and some deadly and deranged individuals are lying in wait…
