BOTTLED UP: A Francine Witt Mystery:
"I really enjoyed the first book in the Francine Witt mysteries. It was charming, unusual, and full of wit. As a result, I was looking forward to the follow up, Bottled Up. Like the fine wines that form a major feature in the books, Steve’s storytelli"

The striking, minimal cover is what first intrigued me about “Ponytail”, a pair of scissors poised against a sweep of blonde hair. It’s bold, unsettling, and oddly elegant, which turned out to be a perfect reflection of what’s inside. Every so often y ...more |

| Having got to know the author on Bookstagram, I was really looking forward to reading ‘All the Stolen Voices’, and I’m happy to say it didn’t disappoint. It feels like the perfect mix of gritty detective story and emotional slow-burn romance. Detecti ...more | |

The trouble with losing your memory is that everyone rushes to tell you who you used to be. In ‘Who Am I?’, Jane C. R. Reid turns that idea into a tense and thought-provoking mystery set on the French Riviera. Freya wakes after an accident with no mem ...more |

I went into ‘An Innocent Heart’ with curiosity and came out pleasantly surprised. It is one of those rare books that manages to juggle several genres without losing its balance. The set-up is bold. In a version of Texas not too far removed from realit ...more |

“There’s a quiver to his lip as he speaks. I need a cold shower. I shouldn’t find this guy attractive. I shouldn’t. He’s the exact opposite of what I need in my life. But, damn, that smile.”

“Talk about girl power, right Max?’ she says to the greying co-host who looks like he’d rather poke his eyes out with his Parker pen than talk about girl power.”

Praised by readers as “deceptively light-hearted but running much deeper than appearances would suggest,” this series delivers twist-filled mysteries with a feminist edge. From ancient Egypt to Napoleonic France, Francine’s cases are enriched with historical intrigue, sparkling humour, and a modern heroine who is anything but the typical amateur sleuth.
With her quips, insecurities, and questionable personal choices, Francine is part Bridget Jones, part investigative reporter, and part reluctant noir detective - a character whose voice is as addictive as the mysteries she unravels.
If you enjoy Agatha Christie’s twists, Dorothy L. Sayers’ depth, and heroines who balance their day jobs with a knack for uncovering secrets, you’ll love following Francine Witt through every witty and engrossing case.
