Personally, I thought that the Elvis the movie was stunning ... Austin Butler did such an amazing job that at times I really thought I was watching Elvis perform. Now he was before my time as I was born in the 1950's ... I came of age with Bob Dylan; Joan Baez; Leonard Cohen, The Mammas & The Pappas, The Seekers & then the British invasion in the 1960's of The Beatles & The Rolling Stones, The Who, etc. Thank you to Baz for producing such an amazing & informative movie. The costumes were sensational so thanks to his wife Catherine for all her hard work. I'd forgotten just how strict society was back then, so it was a jolt of awakening for me ... all the horrible racism & religious zealots coming down hard, was truly ghastly to watch, but as I said, it was informative for me.

A very powerful debut novel for this Irish immigrant who now lives in Western Australia ... a five star thriller, just like her other 2 novels "The Scholar" & "The Good Turn". D. Booth

Medicare USA ... if you've ever wondered about how the high cost of this country's health system affects those who aren't in the top 1%, then this is the book to read. Robin Cook is an MD yet he is able to tell terrifying stories of the highest calibre. This is my 2nd book of his & it doesn't disappoint.

Thank you Peter for writing such precise & taut page-turning novels. I've never been disappointed with any of your books ... I finished Find Them Dead the other night & WOW what a ripper of a read (or as I put it a R.O.A.R).

Thank you Dervla for writing crime fiction novels that are very very good ... I've just finished The Scholar & loved it very much ... altho being a word-nerd I did pick up around 4 'typos' ... I didn't keep a record of these, as in the end they don't detract one iota from the story.
Congratulations on choosing the best state in Australia to live in ... I lived in WA for just under 30 years & I miss life & friends that I left behind ... there were many reasons for my move which I won't go into here.
I've also enjoyed The Good Turn & have ordered The Ruin from my library. Yes, I'm reading your novels back to front, but it doesn't really matter.
Keep on writing ... cheers Di

Peter May is a brilliant author who does his research ... he plots meticulously & is a very original crime writer ... I've just finished The Killing Room last night ... chilling but brilliant + a powerful study of the depths of human love.

An excellent read combining some history of South Africa, politics, policing procedures, wonderful vibrant & fragile characters, some mystery, some humour, Meyer grabs you by the throat & never let's go (Wilbur Smith). Set in Cape Town & France.
