Ben Sanders' AMERICAN BLOOD has been praised as "tense and gritty" (New Zealand Listener), "cementing the arrival of a major crime talent" (New Zealand Herald) and "a winner for crime fans" (Kirkus Reviews, starred review).

Adam Sarafis's SOMETHING IS ROTTEN begins with a murder in an Auckland library and is "an intriguing tale that raises wider issues about the connection between business, politics, and the media" (Herald on Sunday).

Ken Smith's debut HOODWINKED centres on an "endearing" main character who runs afoul of others looking to take advantage (Coast FM). Smith was a lawyer in South Africa for many years and now lives in Auckland.
