About the author

Katherine Pathak lives in rural north Essex with her husband and two young children. She has worked as a History teacher for over ten years and before that she worked in the book trade in London. Aoife's Chariot is her first novel. Katherine has lived in the south-east of England for most of her life, but her father's family come from the Isle of Arran in Scotland and this has been the inspiration for the fictional Island of Garansay, which is the stunning backdrop to this novel. Katherine's life-long interest in History also plays an important part in her writing and she tries to weave historical narratives into her imaginative and ingenious plots. Katherine is currently working on the second in the series of 'Imogen and Hugh Croft mysteries', which should appeal to readers who enjoy her well observed characters and gripping storylines. Katherine feels that a good psychological thriller should explore the quirks and eccentricities of human nature, but that they should always be believable and the plot should reward the reader with a deeply satisfying conclusion. Katherine enjoys writing the sort of novels that she likes to read herself and very much hopes that her readership feels the same!

I'm done...

Thank you for not using the f-word. I have enjoyed your books through book five....but I do not care for James and I hoped Dani would return to her job w/o him and the books would be about solving crimes!!!!!! I do not read romance books. I like British murder mysteries. Five was enough and they were very well written. MAYBE LATER !

The Dark Fear

I love your mysteries , they make you think your part of the story. Sometimes I guess who the culprits are,and some right and some I'm wrong. I read #5 and didn't like as well as others. Now off to next adventures, #6.

Okay

Dani I needs to make some decisions about her job and her life outside of the job. Liked the ending, it wasn't so easy to figure out.

Favorite Author Writes Excellent WhoDunit.

Mob boss gets assassinated, school boy goes over a castle wall to his death and Dani is getting domestic. Author Katherine Pathak always writes superb mysteries and this one is another 5 star book.

[Gary Van Cott · Rating 3 out of 5]

3.5 stars. This book was ok. The most annoying problem is that the author has long stretches of dialog without ever identify the speaker.
