Just read "The Killer's mark" by @mwcraven.bsky.social Book 8 in the sensational Washington Poe series. Damn near series best. Such a joyful reunion with greet characters paired with gritty, dark story. And Cravens trademark humour gives it an extra sparkle.

@mwcraven.bsky.social My review of The Killer’s Mark. Jist fuckin’ read it., listen to it, or get someone to read it to you. And if you happen to have a decent IPA and sausage flat handy, even better. Cheers.

Hopefully (and I think I speak for everyone on this matter) this will be the last unboxing video of 2026. Saying that, we ended on a good one . . . #thekillersmark #washingtonpoe #tillybradshaw #cumbria #carlisle

🕵️ Poe would wing it. Tilly would already have solved it. Something deadly is coming at 8pm on 4th Feb. A crossword. A mystery. A very important title. Be the first to crack it, and you could get your hands on a proof of the brand new Poe novel. Set your alarms. There are no second chances. ⏰🔍

FEARLESS – MW Craven Hi-octane, murderous thrills. Reacher take a backseat. Superb action-writing in a plot wound tight as a corkscrew. Totally merits that oft-overused phrase, ‘unputdownable’. @mwcraven.bsky.social knocks it out the park! Full review: paulfinch-writer.blogspot.com/2023/06/key-...

Do you love ‘90s action movies? Then you need to read NOBODY’S HERO by @mwcraven.bsky.social. The audiobook is expertly narrated by William Hope (who played Lt Gorman in ALIENS). It’s one of my favorite novels of recent.

Just made a start on this series after seeing so many recommendations. Really enjoyed this introduction to Poe and Tilly and will definitely be reading more. A dark crime thriller with nice touches of humour. @mwcraven.bsky.social #ThePuppetShow
