A Land More Kind Than Home

LoveReading Says

Winner of the CWA John Creasey New Blood Dagger 2012.

CWA Judges' comment: “An evocative, absorbing slice of Americana, this well-constructed Southern-gothic tale has dark touches of Faulkner, and highlights the dangers of all-powerful religious belief and fervour.”

Wiley Cash said "As an American writer, it's a shock and a real honor to win an award in a genre with such a proud British tradition."
