What an absolutely wonderful novel featuring two of my favorite investigators. Another fantastic Fleet-Entwhistle mystery! Highly recommend picking up a copy. I couldnt put this book down! Wry, hilarious, and engrossing. Also delightful to hear all the characters' voices in my head while reading.

Deeply researched and chillingly realistic, #TheCure cements Eve Smith’s place as the queen of the speculative tech thriller. We should all be reading her cautionary tales of the near future. Highly, highly recommend.

Listening to A Thousand Feasts by @nigelslater.bsky.social - the first time I’ve read him, & I’m blown away. I’ve never heard such beautiful, sensual writing about food and place in my life. How did it take me this long? Gutted I’ve only just realised I could have been saving clips along the way.
