Recommended Read: The Botanist by M.W. Craven
Recommended Read. Brit Grit. M W Craven. Crime Fiction.
Isn’t there some quote or other about ‘the company that you keep’? I might Google it later and find out. Probably won’t, mind you.
Anyway, it’s always a great pleasure to be in the company of Washington Poe, Tilly Bradshaw, and the rest of their crew. These are recognisably realistic characters who really are great fun to spend time with, no matter how grisly the crimes are that they are investigating. The Botanist is the fifth book in this brilliantly written series, and it may well be the best yet as Poe and his cohorts try to catch a super smart serial killer at the same time as one of their team is arrested for murder.
The Botanist is a truly gripping read from beginning to end and, as always with Craven, despite the gritty subject matter, there is a lot of warmth and humour in the book. So, yes, The Botanist by M W Craven is very highly recommended indeed.
